Students who need more time to pay their tuition bill or whose employer offers a tuition reimbursement benefit may apply for deferment consideration below.
Deferral and Promise to Pay
An approved deferment agreement is the student's personal obligation to meet and is considered to be a binding payment agreement. The student is then obligated to make payment in full for the applicable semester by the extended deadline established therein.
Applications
You must submit a form to apply for a tuition deadline extension. A non-applicable $100 fee payment is required, as well as documentation for pending funds and/or recent loan approvals. Deferral application fees are non-refundable and due at the time the request is submitted. Final deferral approval is determined by the Office of Student Accounts & Bursar Services.
Approved Deferral Benefits
- Prevents a student from being dropped or disenrolled from their courses.
- Prevents the accrual of late fees until the extended tuition payment deadline.
- Permits a resident student to move into residence halls with documentation of secured, funding sources.
Default Consequences
When this document is processed by the Office of Student Accounts and Bursar Services, the student incurs full liability for the semester charges. The failure to receive anticipated resources and financial aid funds does not excuse a student's financial obligation to make payment in full to the College.
Failure to pay in full by the approved deferral due date will also result in:
- The imposition of additional fees and possible legal ramifications.
- A hold on the student’s records, grades, transcripts and future registration at Manhattan College.
- Interest charged at a rate of 1% per month, on any balance.
Deferral Deadline Concerns
Students with past due balances should never ignore their tuition statements. Instead, they should contact the Office of Student Accounts and Bursar Services to discuss alternative payment options.
