Billing Basics

Students are responsible for knowing the billing policies of the University.

Student billing is done on a semester basis. Students who are pre-registered for the fall term will receive bills starting in mid-July. We start billing students who are pre-registered for spring in mid-December. You can always view the current balance of your account online through the Web Advisor.

If you are starting in August, arrangements to pay the balance due must be made prior to the due dates for tuition which are:

Fall Semester: August 19, 2009
Spring Semester: January 4, 2010

Students enrolling in October must have payment arrangements in place prior to the start of classes.  A 1.5% finance charge will be assessed monthly for past due accounts.

North Park offers several attractive payment options to make funding your education easier.  In addition, we'd be happy to counsel you about other loan options that might be available to you.

Please familiarize yourself with the North Park refund policy for dropped classes.

Employer Reimbursement Program

Many students take advantage of the Employer Reimbursement Program, which allows students who are eligible for their company's tuition reimbursement program to defer payment of tuition until two weeks after grades are posted. To enroll in the plan, download and complete the Employer Reimbursement Payment Plan Agreement, and return it to the address on the top of the form. Please include a letter from your employer, indicating that you are part of the organization's tuition reimbursement plan. There is a $30 fee/semester to enroll in the Employer Reimbursement Program.
