Alfred University Payment Plans

Affordable Education, Tailored for You

Alfred University has partnered with PayMyTuition (PMT) to offer an interest free payment plan to enable students or their families to make monthly installments on their student account towards tuition, fees and room and board. The payment plan is not a loan and is available for the fall and spring semesters for up to five automatic installments per semester.

Enrolling in this plan requires a non-refundable $30 fee per plan.

Fall semester payment months: July, August, September, October, and November. Deadline to enroll is August 15.
- Five (5) payments if enrolled by July
Spring semester payment months: December, January, February, March, and April. Deadline to enroll is January 15.
- Five (5) payments if enrolled by December

Please note: it will be up to the discretion of the Alfred University Student Accounts team if late enrollment will be allowed. The payment plan will automatically readjust if charges are added or removed from the student's account.
