Payment Options
Payment plans are available to graduate students who wish to defer tuition payment(s). If you choose this option, you will need to submit a completed payment plan agreement. A new agreement is necessary should students wish to change plans. Students may choose one of the following options:
Installment Plan
Students must pay at least half their tuition charges for the session on or before registration day. At that time, they must provide a completed and signed payment plan agreement. The remaining tuition payment is expected no later than Thursday of week four of the session. Any unpaid balance is subject to finance charges; any late payments are subject to late-payment fees. Students who apply for financial aid may have their payments delayed once their loans have been originated; however, this does not preclude finance charges or late fees from being assessed to their account.
Tuition Reimbursement
A substantial number of students receive tuition reimbursement from their employers. For those students whose companies finance their education, a direct billing arrangement between the employer and DeVry University may be possible.
Students should contact their supervisor or employee benefits office to determine if tuition reimbursement or direct billing is available.
Tuition reimbursement does not eliminate students' responsibility to pay tuition by the due date. Students whose tuition payment is submitted after the due date may be assessed a late-payment fee. Finance charges accrue on any unpaid balance. Students who have been assessed multiple late fees may be prohibited from participating in certain payment plan options.
Delayed Deferral Plan
Students who receive tuition reimbursement may take advantage of the Delayed Deferral Plan. Under this plan, tuition payment is due five weeks after the session in which students complete a course. (Payment is due immediately if a student withdraws from a course during the session.) Students electing this option pay a $20 nonrefundable per-credit-hour deferral fee at registration. No finance charges are assessed on accounts that remain current. Finance charges accrue when accounts becomes past due.
Employer Billing
Students whose employers pay for their education regardless of grades received may choose to have their tuition paid via employer billing. To take advantage of this option, students must submit official documentation (company voucher or letter of sponsorship on company letterhead) at the time of registration. If a voucher is not available at the time of registration, students must select another payment method.
Employer billing does not eliminate students' responsibility to ensure tuition is paid by the due date. Students whose tuition payment is submitted after the due date may be assessed a late-payment fee. Finance charges accrue on any unpaid balance.
Tuition Benefit Programs
Students may participate in one DeVry University-based tuition benefit program only. Those who qualify for more than one program will be presumed to accept the program with the highest reduction in by-semester cost. Students who qualify for and prefer a different tuition benefit program must confirm, in writing, the alternate program in which they wish to participate prior to starting classes at DeVry. See Alumni Tuition, Educator Fellowships and Military Pricing in the Graduate Academic Catalog.
Alumni Tuition
DeVry University and its Keller Graduate School of Management offers alumni who already hold a DeVry University graduate degree the opportunity to pursue an additional graduate-level credential (degree, graduate certificate or concentration) at 85 percent of the prevailing tuition cost. Alumni who wish to take advantage of this benefit should review requirements in the academic catalog. More information is available from the center dean/online student services advisor.
Educator Fellowships
Full-time faculty and academic administrators at elementary, middle, junior high and high schools; regionally accredited public community or junior colleges; and regionally accredited not-for-profit four-year colleges/universities may be eligible for DeVry's educator fellowships. Undergraduate- and graduate-level coursework can be completed onsite and online. Fellowship applications must be submitted prior to starting classes. Contact the Admissions Office or your Keller admissions advisor (admissions representative in Florida, Minnesota, Nebraska and Oregon) for details. Fellowship terms and conditions are subject to change.
