TUITION, PAYMENTS & FEES TUITION PAYMENT OPTIONS 1. MASTERC ARD, VISA OR DISCOVER CALL PHONECHARGE AT (877) 237-9734 (THERE IS A CONVENIENCE FEE FOR USING THIS CREDIT CARD SERVICE.) 2. CHECK PAYABLE TO THE UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND. 3. C ASH 4. AMS PAYMENT Plan (see below) Full payment or plan of payment is due to the Student Accounts office by the end of the first week of the term or you will be dropped from class. PAYMENT PLAN - AMS WHAT IS AMS? AMS (Academic Management Services) is an education financing company that provides families and students with a low cost plan for budgeting tuition and other education expenses. The Tuition Pay Monthly plan is NOT a loan program, therefore no debt is incurred. There is no interest or finance charge assessed by AMS on the unpaid balance due to the college. The only fee to budget payments through AMS is a $35.00 per semester non-refundable enrollment fee. Payments made through AMS are considerably less expensive than the cost of obtaining loans, paying with credit cards, or budgeting through other interest or feecharging payment plans. There is no credit search or qualifications necessary to use AMS. One of the reasons why the cost to budget with AMS is so affordable is because payments through AMS are made by using automatic payments from your bank. The automatic payment helps you budget tuition payments in a convenient way which ensures that the college will receive dependable and consistent tuition payments. With AMS you never miss a payment and you save the time and expense of writing and mailing checks. HOW DOES THE AUTOMATIC PAYMENT WORK? Automatic payments are simply payments that you authorize your bank to make on your behalf on a specific date each month. The amount paid by your bank is a predetermined amount that you have authorized. Your bank will make these payments from either your checking or savings account, according to the instructions you have provided on your agreement with AMS. Payments will be made until the total amount due to the college is paid in full. Automatic payments are used to pay mortgages, life insurance premiums, car payments, utilities, and other types of bills.
TUITION/FEES FOR SPRING 2003 Tuition per credit hour - $248 (3 credit hour courses = $744) EXCEPTIONS: lADED 201U Portfolio Assessment lTeacher Licensure Courses TLP 2 & 3 credit courses TLP Field & Seminar courses TLP 6 credit courses lTeacher Recertification Courses lGraduate Disaster Certificate Courses Application fee Disaster Graduate Certificate courses

lLate registration fee lLate payment fee lParking Permit (thru Summer ‘03) lStudent Activities fee (per semester)
$15 $30 $10 $10
Auditing Fee: Cost to audit a course is the same as taking the course for credit. When you use AMS to pay your school tuition, your bank sends your payment on the 5th of the month directly to the bank that AMS uses to collect tuition payments. Before any payment is made, AMS provides evidence of your authorization for tuition payments to your bank. Your bank will usually verify this authorization with you and then set up the payment schedule. It is important to remember that AMS and your college never see your bank account or have any direct access to your account. You never lose any control of your account. The automatic payment process is strictly controlled by state and federal laws. With AMS your payments are made on the 5 th of each month. BUDGET PERIOD To qualify for the 3-month payment plan, AMS must receive student applications by August 10th for the fall semester or December 10th for the Spring semester. The budget period is August through October for the fall semester and January through March for the spring semester. The AMS payment plan is not available for courses offered during the summer semester.
HOW TO APPLY FOR AMS To enroll in the Tuition Pay Monthly plan simply go to their website at www.tuitionpay.com and click on “enroll now”. WHAT IF I HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT MY ACCOUNT? There is always an account representative who can answer questions about your AMS account once it has been established. You can call 1-800-556-6684 and speak to your account representative. You may also contact the Student Accounts Office at (804) 289-8149. CAN CHANGES BE MADE TO MY ACCOUNT? Yes: notify the Student Accounts Office at the University of changes resulting from additional Financial Aid, course additions, deletions, etc. Call (804) 289-8149. WHAT IF I HAVE QUESTIONS ABOUT MY ACCOUNT? There is always an account representative who can answer questions about your AMS account, once it has been established.
