If you have questions regarding an outstanding balance or a financial hold on your account, please contact either Ben Central at (630) 829-6500 or the Student Accounts Office at (630) 829-6503.

Monthly Payment Plans

Benedictine University has partnered with Sallie Mae to provide interest-free monthly payment options through the TuitionPay Plan. Students may create budgets to manage their tuition costs annually or per term. Students may enroll online or call (800) 635-0120 to speak with a TuitionPay consultant. Be sure to have your estimated expenses ready when you call or visit the Web site. If your budget changes at any time (increase/decrease in financial aid, increase/decrease of tuition charges or fees), please contact TuitionPay to adjust your payment plan accordingly. Please note that if the budget amount does not equal your balance due with BU, a financial hold and late payment fee may apply.

• Annual budgets - For a fee of $50, students can make monthly payments toward their full-year's tuition balance (June - May). Please note that tuition for the Fall must be paid in full through the payment plan with the December 1 payment and tuition for the Spring must be paid in full with the May 1 payment.
  
• Single Term budgets - For a fee of $30, students can make monthly payments toward their tuition balance for a single term.

Employer Tuition Reimbursement

For a fee of $30, students can arrange with Sallie Mae's TuitionPay, a single tuition payment plan due at the end of the term (plus a grace period) with proper documentation from their employer. Documentation of your approval in your employer's tuition assistance plan must be submitted to the Student Accounts Office of Benedictine University prior to enrolling in this plan. An updated copy of the policy must be submitted every Fall term thereafter. Students may fax this documentation to Student Accounts at (630) 829-6501. The student will be responsible for initiating contact with the Student Accounts Office each term to request enrollment in this plan. If the student's enrollment changes after the initial set up of this plan, the student must contact the Student Accounts Office to request either an update to the plan amount or in the case of withdrawal from the school, removal of the plan. Please note that tuition is due in full according to the deferred due date specified by TuitionPay regardless of when individual employers reimburse their employees.

**Failure to meet Options 1, 2 or 3 by payment deadline will result in a late payment fee of $100 and a financial hold placed on the student's account**

Returned Checks

Payment of tuition or fees with a check or ACH that is subsequently returned from the bank unpaid will result in a returned check fee posted to your student account. A student may not satisfy a returned check obligation with a personal check.
