Payment Plan
What are the payment plan options?
Georgetown University currently offers three different payment plans during the fall and spring semester, and two summer semester plans. These will allow students and parents to pay for a semester’s tuition over the course of three or four months. To be eligible, a student must have an account balance of at least $500.00. Additionally, the student or authorized user must be able to pay the enrollment fee online via eCheck. Payment plan enrollment must be completed each semester, as plans do not automatically roll over to the next semester.
How do I sign up for a payment plan?
The following instructions will detail how to sign up for one of our plans (authorized users (new window) may skip to step 4 below):
- Log in to GU Experience.
- Click on ‘Open Student Accounts Dashboard’
- Click on the ‘Student Account Services’ link. (This will take you to our secure payment gateway and you may be prompted to enter your NetID login credentials)
- You will next see a row of tabs just under the Georgetown header. Click on ‘Payment Plans’.
- Click on the green button labeled ‘Enroll Now’
- Select a term for which you wish to enroll in a plan. Enrollment periods begin roughly one month prior to the start of a given term and end at the end of the semester’s add/drop period.
- Select from one of the available plans
- You will be given a breakdown of the charges to be covered by the plan. Note that you can include a down payment – this will not count towards your first installment and will instead reduce the overall balance of the plan. Click on the green button labeled ‘Display Schedule to Continue’
- A payment schedule will be displayed. You will have the option of scheduling payments all at once, or you may elect to return to the website and manually make each payment on or prior to the due-date. Make your selection and click on ‘Continue’
- Regardless of your choice, the $60 Payment Plan Fee must be paid at sign up. Select your payment method from the pull-down menu and click on ‘Select’
- You will be presented with the official agreement for the plan. Review and check the ‘I Agree’ box. Then click on ‘Continue’
- Next, you will be presented with the standard payment agreement, as you will, at a minimum, be making a payment for the Payment Plan Fee. Review, click on the agreement box, and then click on ‘Continue’
You will be given a confirmation of both your payment and of your enrollment in the plan. An email confirmation will be sent to the address of the user enrolling in the plan.
Note that Georgetown University reserves the right to deny access to payment plans for any reason.
