Refund policy for individual classes
January Interim and Spring The full tuition will be refunded for an individual class according to the deadlines listed in the Deadlines for billing and payment section. Housing fees are not refundable.Financial Course Load
The Controller's Office will consider the total course load at the end of the second full week (February 8, 2008) as the student’s course load base for the semester. All additions will be figured from this base. This policy includes late sign up for mini or modular courses.
Payment plans
Two plans are available to all Bradley students.
1. The Deferred Payment Plan (DPP) requires 25% of the net semester charges (i.e. total charges less applicable financial assistance) to be paid at registration. There is a deferment charge of 4% on the unpaid balance. For Spring semester, the remaining amount is payable in three equal monthly installments beginning approximately one month after registration. Payment may not be deferred for January Interim.
2. The Monthly Installment Payment Plan (MIPP), available to all full-time undergraduate students during the school year, allows students to make monthly payments toward their charges. Each payment will be one-twelfth of the amount placed on installment: total charges minus financial aid (excluding Work Study) and/or down payment. Payments are made monthly from June 1 to May 1. (See example below.) You may enroll in this program from May 1 to August 1 by including any prior monthly payments in your initial payment. A $135 nonrefundable annual enrollment fee is charged. If any payment does not reach the Controller’s Office on or before the first business day of the month, a late fee of $25 is added. The university will send monthly reminders and will notify students of changes in their bills. If payments are not current, you will be taken off the payment plan and all charges will be payable in full. Please contact the Controller’s Office for an application form. The following examples are based on 2007-2008 undergraduate Tier II student charges of $28,228 ($21,000 tuition, $7,050 room and board, $108 health fee, and $70 activity fee, for the academic year).
a. Place all charges on installment. Enroll before June 1. Annual enrollment fee of $135 due with MIPP application. Charges of $28,228 divided by 12 equals $2,352 due per installment due June 1, 2007-May 1, 2008.
b. Place charges in excess of $10,000 financial aid on installment. Annual enrollment fee of $135 due with MIPP application. Charges of $18,228 divided by 12 equals $1,519 due per installment due June 1, 2007-May 1, 2008.
