Tuition payment plans are short-term (12 months or less) installment
plans which split your tuition into equal monthly payments. Many such
plans are essentially interest-free, but some have fees or finance
charges. Ask about the costs to you before using a tuition installment
plan.
For information about prepaid tuition plans and college savings plans, see the
Section 529 Plans section of FinAid.
For more information about longer term education loans, see the
Student Loans section of FinAid.
