Payment Options

Payment at Registration

Students must have any prior balances on their account settled before beginning the registration process. Full payment or the first installment of the payment plan is due on the semester due date. A student will not be able to register for a subsequent semester or receive credit on their transcripts for completed semesters until payment is made in full.

Semester Payment Plan

Students unable to pay the full amount on the payment due date may use the semester payment plan. One-third of the total semester cost (minus financial aid credits) must be paid on the payment due date, and the remaining two-thirds are paid in three equal monthly payments due on or before the dates listed above. There is a $70 fee per semester for use of the payment plan. Students may be charged a $40 late fee if payments arrive after the due date. The payment plan may be unavailable to students with a history of late payments or a previous Rochester College account passed to a collection agency.
