Monthly Payment Plan

The Monthly Payment Plan (MPP) allows you to pay charges for tuition and mandatory fees in four installments each semester. There is a $35 fee per semester to enroll in the Monthly Payment Plan. You must pay monthly installments by the due date each month and pay all past due charges prior to the start of each semester in order to remain eligible to participate.

Please note: Payments must be made manually each month, as the system does not offer automatic payments.

Charges for HU Housing rent and for incidentals, such as library fines, are not included in the MPP and are added to the current installment amount due. Financial aid or outside award credits will be applied to the total balance before it is divided into installments.

If charges that are placed in the plan are reversed or reduced, your installment amounts may also be reduced. If you incur eligible charges after your enrollment in the plan, your remaining installments may increase as a result. Please note, if your student account has already received payment(s) for the term, prior to your enrollment in the plan, those payments will be reflected in your first installment and are not applied to the overall plan amount. In such a case, you will notice a higher MPP amount while enrolling in the plan. Your prior payment(s) will be distributed and your overall balance adjusted after completing enrollment in the plan.

To enroll in the Monthly Payment Plan, log in to your account, select Student Accounts from the left menu, and select the enrollment link under Payment Plan. Enrollment for the Spring 2024 semester will open after you are billed. You cannot opt out of the Monthly Payment Plan after registration. To cancel your payment plan before registration, please contact us.

Please note: Even if you were enrolled in the Monthly Payment Plan (MPP) in the prior semester, to continue paying your bill in monthly installments, you'll need to re-enroll in the current semester.
