Step-by-Step Instructions

Payment Plans

A payment plan allows you to pay your tuition in installments. It may be set up in person or online. Payment plans are available for the Spring, Summer, and Fall semesters.

The Following Conditions Apply:

  • A nonrefundable, $15 one-time setup charge per semester will be added to your tuition total.
  • When you create a new payment plan, you must make a minimum down payment of $50. You may pay more if you wish, but not less.
  • Course credit may be denied if payment in full has not been made by the end of the semester.
  • You must sign a promissory note when you set up your payment plan and you must accept the terms of the payment plan agreement if setting it up online.
  • If you drop courses or withdraw, any applicable refund is applied to the balance due. Any remaining balance owed should still be paid in full.
  • A $10 late charge is applied for each installment payment that is not paid on time.

Note: Miniterms (Winter and May Terms) can only be included in payment plans if you also register for regular term (Spring or Summer) courses at the same time.

Important Notices

To avoid being dropped from your courses, you should set up a payment plan or pay in full by your due date. If you are expecting a financial aid award or other funding source that has not been posted to your student account, you are responsible for payment until it is posted.

If a financial aid award or other funding source is applied to your student account and creates a credit balance, you should be refunded according to the Dallas College refund and disbursement policies. Refunds and disbursements may be withheld or transferred for certain blocks or past due balances owed.

If the financial aid award or other funding source applied to your student account is less than the amount owed, you are responsible for the remaining amount owed.

If you decide not to take a course(s), it is your responsibility to drop the course(s) or withdraw from all courses. Depending on the date of your drop or withdrawal, you may only be eligible for a partial refund or no refund at all.

Note: Students may petition for an exception to the refund policy in a separate process through student services.
