Payment Plan

The College of Charleston offers students and parents automatic scheduled payment plans to finance education and related expenses over the period of a semester.

Tuition and mandatory fees (including lab and matriculation fees)
Housing and food service costs

The Payment Plan DOES NOT include parking, late fees, Cougar Cards, and other miscellaneous costs.

The plan is offered exclusively by the college and replaces any past plans including promissory notes.

The payment schedule calculates the balance remaining after financial aid is applied; financial aid funds, such as loans, scholarships, grants, etc. are not recognized as payments toward the payment plan. Students may still elect to make full payment at time of registration.

Payments will automatically process at noon on the due date.

About the Plan

Each semester, you can elect to enroll in the payment plan and schedule automatic payments to pay on the due date. To participate in a Payment Plan, you must sign up for a Plan prior to the semester due date.

Payment Plan Options and Cost
Late and Delinquent Accounts

The College will assess late fees equal to 3.75% of the balance due for payments not received as scheduled. The College also reserves the right to assign your delinquent account to a collection agency and you will be responsible for all collection fees, any additional attorney fees and court costs.
If a hold has been placed on your account for a missed payment please notify the Treasurer's Office immediately so your hold can be cleared. It will not automatically clear your holds.
Checks returned by the bank will result in removal from the plan with the entire amount becoming due and payable.
