Automatic Debit Plan (ADP)

The University System offers an Automatic Debit Plan to enable students to spread tuition payments out over time by having them automatically charged to a credit card on a pre-set schedule. The amount and number of payments is proportional to the length of the course. Students in 16-Week courses make four ADP payments. Students in 8-week courses make two ADP payments. To be eligible for the ADP plan, the student must be registered for credit bearing courses. Audit students are not eligible for ADP.
