Payment Plans for Current Students

Pay your bill in full by the deadline, or enroll in a payment plan before the term begins. Billing notifications are sent to your Fort Lewis College email, and you are responsible for all charges on your student account.

Staying Enrolled Next Term

  • To register for a future term, your account balance must be at or below $500.
  • If you miss a scheduled payment, you'll be removed from your payment plan. Depending on your remaining balance, a hold may be placed on your account that could affect future registration.
  • If you miss your final payment and still owe more than $500, you'll have two weeks from the date that payment was due to bring your balance below $500, otherwise you may be dropped from your next term's courses.

Need a Plan Across Multiple Terms?

If you need a payment arrangement that spans more than one term, your plan will need to be set up manually. Contact the Accounting Office and a Student Billing Specialist will work with you directly.

Payment plans for non-enrolled students

If you're no longer enrolled but still have a balance, an extended payment plan may be available to you.

Requirements for extended payment plans:

  • Plans may not exceed 12 months
  • Full balance must be paid within that timeframe
  • Minimum monthly payment is $100

To get started, email the Accounting Office confirming you agree to the terms. A Student Billing Specialist will set up your plan once that confirmation is received.

Returned Payment Fee

A $20 fee will be added to your account for any returned payment, including returned checks and electronic payments (ACH/EFT), due to insufficient funds.
