Payment Options
Financial arrangements for all student charges should be made before classes start based on the published dates: Fall - Aug. 1 | Spring - Dec. 1 | Summer - May 1. To meet the financial needs of our students and their families, Lipscomb offers the following payment options. Students who have not designated one of the following payment options will not be eligible to attend classes:
I. Monthly Payment Plan
Lipscomb University offers monthly payment plan options that allow students to pay semester expenses with equal monthly payments ending in October (for fall) or March (for spring). The plans have a non-refundable enrollment fee of $60 per semester. Any late payments are subject to a $40 late payment fee. Payments are drafted on the 25th of each month. Note: Payment plans will not include prior term charges.
II. Full Pay
Under this plan the entire balance (less any verified financial aid) is paid before classes begin based on the published dates. Credit card and ACH payments can be made online. Check payments can be made at the cashier’s window.
Note: It is the student’s responsibility to make arrangements for all financial aid, outside scholarships, loans and payments prior to the beginning of the term. When calculating your full pay balance, do not deduct any estimated work study award.
Financial Responsibility
Registration at the University is considered a binding contract. Students are not permitted to register for classes or receive transcripts or diploma until all financial obligations to the University are satisfied.
Students are responsible for informing the Registrar’s Office of any change in billing address.
Delinquent Accounts
Past due accounts are subject to interest at 1.5 percent per month (18 percent annually). Failure to meet financial obligations to the University may result in the delinquent account being placed with a collection agency. Students are responsible for reimbursing the University for the fees of any collection agency, which may be based on a percentage at a maximum of 33.3 percent of the debt, and all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in such collection efforts.
Business Office Holds
Students who have not satisfied their financial obligations will be placed on hold. Students on a Business Office hold are not permitted to register for classes or receive transcripts or diploma.
Title IV Stipend Policy
A stipend will be issued for any credit balance on a student account resulting from Title IV funds no later than 14 days after credit occurred. Direct deposit is the preferred method.
Dropping Courses
During the official drop/add period, students are able to drop or add online. After that time, a Drop/Add Form must be completed and accepted in the Registrar’s Office. The official drop date will be the faculty-reported last date of attendance/participation in the course.
Adding Courses
No reduction in tuition is provided for courses added at any time during the semester. Before adding or dropping classes, students should ensure that they understand how the course load changes will affect their student account, including the impact on loans, scholarships, and grants as applicable.
Official Withdrawal
• Students desiring to officially withdraw from the University must obtain a Withdrawal Form from the Registrar’s Office and supply all requested information and required signatures.
• The completed Student Withdrawal Form and the student ID card must be received in the Business Office before an adjustment can be made to the student’s financial record.
• The official withdrawal date will be the faculty-reported last date of attendance/participation in the course.
• The deadline for official withdrawal from the University is the last day of classes prior to the final exam period of each semester.
• Lipscomb charges a withdrawal fee.
Suspension, probation or withdrawal after the specified dates does not result in reduced charges or additional credits on the student bill.
