The University of San Diego offers three payment plans to assist the student and his/her family in meeting the costs of education (If you have financial aid, refer to Deferment Contract Instruction below):

Plan I: Full Payment

Payment is due in full on or before your assigned registration/fee payment day. The registration/fee payment deadlines are August 16, 2007, for the Fall semester and January 16, 2008, for the Spring semester. Remember, all fees must be paid in full by close of business on the deadlines listed above to avoid a late payment charge.

Plan II: Prepayment Plan
The prepayment plan allows a discount of 4 percent per annum (1/3% per month) for payment in advance of all tuition, housing and fees. The Pre-Payment Plan operates according to the following guidelines:

• You may prepay for the entire academic year or for Fall and Spring separately. To receive the maximum discount available, the entire academic year needs to be paid by May 1st. Only one academic year may be paid in advance. July 1st is the last day you can make a pre-payment and receive a discount for Fall semester, and Dec. 1st for spring semester. The pre-payment plan is now available on line. Please fill out the pre-payment worksheet on-line and the worksheet will automatically calculate the discount. Use the table of Number of Months Paid in Advance to calculate number of months discounted. If you are pre-paying through E-pay you will need to print out the completed pre-payment worksheet and mail it to the Student Accounts Office for the discount to be applied. If paying by check mail your prepayment worksheet with your check to the Student Accounts Office.
• In the event of withdrawal prior to registration/fee payment days, amount paid is refundable in full. After the registration/fee payment deadlines, amounts due the University are governed by the published refund policy. Please consult the University Bulletin or Undergrad Bulletin
for refund dates.

Plan III: Monthly Installment Plan
The monthly installment plan allows for payment in five (per semester) installments, subject to adjustments, covering actual expenses per semester. If you had a prior contract plan, your eligibility is subject to verification.
The Monthly Installment Plan operates according to the following guidelines:

• Payments begin on August 1 for the Fall semester and on January 1 for the Spring semester plan.
• You will need to sign up each semester
• Adjustments are made to remaining contract payments as charges and/or credits occur. Charges for various fines, citations or other non-contractual charges are payable immediately and are not deferred over any remaining installment period.
• In the event of a contract default, USD may refuse the student or contract buyer a subsequent Monthly Installment Plan.
• All payments, which are due on the first of the month throughout the contract life, must be current. If a student's installment plan is not kept current, the University reserves the right to cancel the student's class reservation and room and board arrangements. If installment payments are not current at the time of the Fall and/or Spring semester fee payment/registration deadlines, the $150.00 late payment/registration fee must be paid.
• A $50.00 processing fee must be paid when signing up for each semester. The processing fee is charged per semester and is nonrefundable.

Deferment Contract
A Deferment Contract must be signed, in the Student Accounts Office, if the student is expecting to receive Financial aid (Student Loan, Scholarship, Grant, Grad Fellowship, etc.) and the funds have not arrived by his/her registration/fee payment deadline.

If the student's actual charges exceed the estimated financial aid awarded, the student is responsible for paying any such amount at the time of signing the Deferment. A fee of $50.00 may be required upon execution of the contract.
