About Tuition Pay
TuitionPay is a monthly plan that provides interest-free monthly installments. It works well for families who can't afford the entire tuition bill at one time, or those who want to hold on to their interest-earning savings a little longer.
Here's how it works.
Most schools send out tuition bills that cover the entire term and are due in full. TuitionPay takes your bill and splits it into smaller amounts, payable over a number of months. You still owe the same amount of tuition, but you now have more time to pay and your payments are much smaller.
How does it make tuition more affordable?
First, it's interest-free and gives you longer to pay. Once your bill is stretched into interest-free installments, the need to borrow is minimized or eliminated. Borrowing less means you pay less interest—which can add up to great savings.
Second, the extended payment term lets you hold on to your interest-earning savings longer. Instead of handing over all your savings at one time, you can pay monthly and continue to earn interest on what's left in the bank.
How much do I have to pay each month?
That's up to you. Payments can be stretched over 3-12 months, depending on what your school offers.
Here's an example.
Let's say you owe $12,000 in tuition, and your school offers the 10-month Plan. Dividing the total bill by the number of months you have to pay gives you 10 monthly installments of $1,200 each.
Can't afford to pay that much?
Keep in mind that you don't have to pay the entire bill with TuitionPay Monthly Plan. If needed, AMS Loans are available to cover any amount that your current income and savings can't cover.
