Tuition Payment Policy
Installment Payment Plan
Olivet wants to help students budget for the cost of their education cost by offering them an equal and interest-free installment payment option. Payment plans available are a three-month plan (for fall, winter and spring) or two-month plan (for summer). A $25 fee will be charged during sign-up for an installment payment plan. If a student fails to pay the first installment, he or she will be terminated from the installment plan and the remaining balance will be due immediately.
Delinquent Accounts
All financial obligations are to be paid on or before the due date and an account is considered delinquent the day after the financial obligation is due. It is the student's responsibility to keep his/her account current. If accounts are delinquent, the following fees or restrictions will be applied:
- Restricted from registering for the subsequent quarter.
- Grade will not be released.
Student Account Disputes
All disputes concerning student accounts should be directed to the Student Finance Office. Contact staff by email at studentfinance@olivetuniversity.edu
