博彩网站 Acceptable Payment Arrangements

Payment In Full

Students can pay their entire balance in full though 博彩网站Net (The Campuswide Portal) or at Student Financial Services. If a student registers for additional credits after their initial payment in full, they must pay for those credits. Partial payments are not considered an acceptable payment arrangement and will not save a student's schedule from being deleted. Please note: When paying with credit/debit card there is a 2.4% (minimum $1.00) non-refundable service fee.

Completed Financial Aid File (Fall and Spring Students only):

Students who may have not been awarded financial aid must have a completed financial aid file to be considered as having payment arrangements. If a student's file is reviewed and becomes incomplete prior to the start of classes, the student must complete their file again or make a different 博彩网站 Acceptable Payment Arrangement. Students will be notified of their file becoming incomplete by mail or by 博彩网站 e-mail. In addition, if students don't agree to take a loan they will not be considered to have a complete file.

Financial Aid

Pending Financial Aid is considered to be an 博彩网站 acceptable payment arrangement. Students who are awarded financial aid can view and compare their awarded amount to their bill amount by logging into 博彩网站Net (The Campuswide Portal) and clicking on "View My Bill/Financial Aid or Make a Payment" under Financial Information.

Please Note: If the student's aid is not enough to cover their balance, the student is responsible to pay the remaining balance.  In addition, if a student is not making satisfactory academic progress they could lose their eligibility for their pending aid and they will need to make a different 博彩网站 Acceptable Payment Arrangement.

Payment Plan

Assisting our students in meeting their financial obligations is one of our top priorities. 博彩网站 provides a monthly payment plan through Nelnet Business Solutions. Students can enroll in this interest-free monthly payment plan by logging in to their 博彩网站Net account (The Campuswide Portal) and clicking on "Payment Plan" under the How Do I Pay My Bill section.

Please Note:

  • Payment Plans are not considered an acceptable payment arrangement for the winter session.
  • A $35 enrollment fee will be required to signup for the Nelnet payment plan
  • Students Signing up for our Nelnet Payment Plan by credit and debit card will be assessed a non-refundable 2.5% service fee. This service fee is charged by Nelnet.

Third Party Billing/Outside Scholarships

Springfield Technical Community College accepts payments from a "Third Party". Students must submit a letter or voucher from the third party indicating the amount that will be paid and contact information.  All payments will be due within 30 days from the time the College bills the third party. 

Please Note:

  • Students are ultimately responsible for any tuition and fees not covered by the Third Party.
  • All letters and vouchers must be submitted on company letterhead informing the College of an outside scholarship for which you have qualified. The letter must include the amount of the scholarship, an address to send the invoice, a contact name, and phone number. If the scholarship does not cover the entire cost of your bill, you must pay for the remaining balance.
  • If a third party is paying for your tuition and fees, there cannot be any restrictions on payments such as grades, number of credits, etc.
