An email is sent to each registered student's fortlewis.edu email address and to authorized users email addresses (if the student has set them up for access) approximately four weeks prior to the start of Fall and Winter terms and approximately two weeks prior to the start of each Summer Session indicating that a new statement has been generated and is available for viewing. No paper bill will be sent. A new email is sent any time the billed amount changes and a new statement is issued.
Financial aid is applied to student bills approximately 5 days before each term begins. After the bill is paid in full, any extra money is refunded to the student.
Fort Lewis College offers two payment options to students for the Fall and Winter terms to cover their institutional charges if they are not receiving financial aid or if the aid does not cover the entire bill.
-
Payment in full by census date of each term: Pay your balance in full by the published census date of each term.
-
Three Payment Plan: Payments are due by September 15, October 15, and November 15 for the Fall term and due by January 15, February 15, and March 15 for the Winter term. There is a $50 set up fee each term for this option and payments that are not paid on time will be assessed a $10.00 late fee. Enrollment is required each term and will be available once the billing is issued.
We accept cash, checks, and Visa, MasterCard or Discover for all of these payment options. We do not charge any additional fees if you to use your credit card. ACH check payments are available through the Student Account Suite.
No payment plans are available for summer sessions. Each session is five weeks long and payment is due in full by the first Friday of each session.
