Albion College offers two tuition payment plans:

1.  The College's own Deferred Fee Agreement.

For a student to participate in the College's own deferred payment plan, the need for deferred payment plan must be established in advance at the Business Office.  In such cases, the deferred payment plan requires that a minimum of one-half of the basic semester fees (which include tuition, room , board, and any additional miscellaneous fees) must be paid on final enrollment day.  The balance will be paid in two equal installments including a time charge differential equal to 1 1/4 percent per month accrued from the date of final enrollment.  In 2005-2006, the balance of fees is payable on October 12, 2005 and November 9, 2005 for the first semester and February 13, 2002 and March 13, 2005 for the second semester.

Failure to meet an installment that is past due automatically cancels the privileges of class attendance.

2.  Academic Management Services (AMS)

The AMS plan enables you to pay all or part of your Albion College fees in monthly installments without interest charges.  The plan may also be used to supplement all other forms of financial aid such as grants, loans and scholarships.  A valuable feature of the plan is Tuition Protection Coverage (TPC), which is provided at no additional cost.  TPC pays the unpaid balance of the AMS Plan should the person responsible for paying the AMS bill die.

Participation is on an annual basis.  The only cost is the $ 55.00 annual enrollment fee.  There are NO other fees or interest charges.  Please visit the AMS website for further information and to sign up on-line.

Past Due Accounts

Students having any indebtedness to the College will not be permitted to complete enrollment for the following semester's classes.

No diploma, certificate, transcript, semester grade report, letter of honorable dismissal, or letter of recommendation will be granted to students who have an indebtedness to the College.

Sound business practice provides guidelines for all financial transactions with the College, including but not limited to the payment of fees and other obligations, purchases at the bookstore and the cashing of checks.  These practices include a respect for accuracy and punctuality; and the College deals both with students and parents when questions concerning these transactions arise.

The college reserves the right to increase or decrease fees and charges according to changes in economic conditions.  Published notice of any change normally will be given in advance.
