Government Loans and Tuition Refund. Students who have received government loan monies (i.e., Perkins, Stafford, and HEAL) for quarters in which they drop below half-time enrollment may owe a refund to their lender. Contact the Student Financial Services Office for details.
Tuition Payment Policy Fuller Seminary requires either full payment at the time of registration or a deposit along with specific provisions for payment. These provisions may include the remaining balance being covered by verified Fuller financial aid, a payment plan with two or three payments (depending on when a student signs up for the plan), or a combination of both. The preferred method of payment with any option is by check. The seminary also accepts online VISA and MasterCard credit and debit card payments with a nonrefundable convenience fee of $8 per transaction. Option 1: Full Payment (no Fuller Financial Aid Expected). The preferred option is payment of all tuition and fees at the time of registration. If you are not registering for classes, but you have Fuller student health insurance and/or an unpaid balance, the seminary requires full payment of health insurance and any other charges (such as continuation fees, etc.), as well as any previous balance, by the first Friday of the quarter. Option 2: Deposit and Payment by Fuller Financial Aid. If payment of all tuition and fees for the quarter is to be made by Fuller grants, scholarships, or federal student loans, you must pay a minimum deposit of $200 (plus any previous balance, which should not exist at this point). You must have a current and fully processed Fuller financial aid application on file in order to use this option. If your Fuller financial aid is not sufficient to pay all tuition and fees in full, you must either pay the difference when you register or sign up for a tuition payment plan for the difference (see Option 3 below). Option 3: Deposit and Tuition Payment Plan. If you cannot pay in full when you register, and you would like the convenience of making monthly payments, you may sign up for a tuition payment plan (TPP) through Academic Management Services (AMS). If you choose this option, you must pay a minimum deposit of $200 (and any previous balance) and provide proof that you have signed up for a TPP in order to register. Payment Plan Details. You may sign up for a tuition payment plan online at www.tuitionpayenroll.com, or by phone at 1-800-635-0120. When you sign up, you will need to estimate your tuition and fees, less any expected Fuller financial aid and your deposit. If your student account balance changes after you sign up for a TPP, you must contact AMS to revise your payment plan. Signing up for a tuition payment plan allows you to pay that quarter's tuition and fees in two or three scheduled monthly installments, depending on when you signed up for the plan. The nonrefundable fee for this service is $40, and no interest is charged. Payments are made directly to AMS by automatic withdrawal, mail, phone, or online. Credit card and telephone transactions will incur a convenience fee (see www.fuller.edu/sfs/tppfees.asp for details). Payment due dates are as follows:
Tuition payment plans are usually available two months before the first payment date. You do not have to have registered to sign up for a plan and begin making payments. Signing up after any payment dates have passed requires payment of the full plan fee and catch-up payments for due dates missed in the current plan. AMS TuitionPay consultants are available by phone to assist you in determining your plan amount, and Fuller's Student Financial Services Office can also assist with any questions you have about your balance, your payment plan, or your financial options. Frequently asked questions (FAQ's) are answered on the Student Financial Services website at www.fuller.edu/sfs. A payment plan estimator is also available for download from this site. Late or Missing Payments. Please be advised that late or missing payments will incur late payment charges, and may result in the payment plan option not being available to you for future registrations. In such a case, you would have to pay in full at registration any charges not covered by verified Fuller financial aid.
Overdue Accounts Policy Students whose tuition, housing or bookstore accounts are not current will not be able to register for the next quarter, receive diplomas, or have transcripts issued. The seminary, in accordance with its goals of maintaining only current student accounts and encouraging faithful financial stewardship among students, may turn any student account that is delinquent 45 or more days over to professional collection agencies.
Disenrollment Policy Fuller Seminary reserves the right to disenroll a student in any of the following situations: (1) payment for registration was made by a check not backed by sufficient funds; (2) registration was not accompanied by adequate payment (including previous balance and appropriate down payment on new charges, or payment in full in cases where such payment is required); (3) the student registered for more units than approved by the Student Accounts Office, when permission for limited registration has been given based on previous balance or payment history; (4) the student is found to have a delinquent account in the Bookstore or Housing Office at the time of registration and has evaded, falsified or inadvertently obtained registration clearance from either office. In most cases, the student will be permitted five working days to remedy the situation before being disenrolled. In the case of repeated offenses, however, the seminary reserves the right to disenroll the student immediately. In all cases, once the student has been disenrolled, reenrollment for that quarter will not be granted even if the situation is subsequently resolved. Future enrollment will depend on whatever conditions are imposed by the office(s) involved as necessitated by the situation.
