Jacksonville State University is pleased to offer students a payment plan option for tuition, university housing, residential dining program and other miscellaneous semester charges. The plan provides for these charges to be paid in three payments. The plan is optional and requires a $50.00 (non-refundable) set-up fee that is due at the time of enrollment in the plan each semester. Students may however elect to make payment in full by the due date of January 12, 2010.

ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
All students in good financial standing with the university are eligible to enroll in the payment plan. All prior term charges must be paid in full. Prior semester charges cannot be included in the payment plan.

WHAT THE PLAN COVERS?
You can use the JSU plan to pay all or part of tuition, university housing, residential dining program charge (if applicable), ID fee, decal fee and other miscellaneous charges (less any partial payments, financial aid loans, scholarships or third-party payments) for the semester.

Other miscellaneous charges may include but are not limited too - late registration fees, phone bills, graduation fees, parking fines and health center charges.

Prior semester charges cannot be included in the payment plan.

HOW THE PLAN WORKS?
There will be a $50.00 (non-refundable) set-up fee per semester to enroll in the plan. Qualified expenses (less any partial payments, financial aid loans, scholarships or third-party payments) will be divided into three (3) installments. Students are required to provide a valid debit/credit card (MasterCard, Visa or Discover) or a valid checking or savings account for automatic payment processing on the following dates:

                                     #1:   Installment              January 12, 2010

                                    #2:    Installment              February 5, 2010    

                                    #3:    Installment                   March 5, 2010

If your 1st Installment cannot be processed on January 12, 2010, your classes will be cancelled.

The university will accept any advance payments. A student may wish to make a down payment, reducing the amount to be paid using the payment plan.
