Payment Plans
Some graduate program offices offer payment plan options. Please check your program’s Web site
for details. In addition, NSU offers the following plans:
• 3-Month and 10-Month Payment Plans
NSU students (with the exception of international students) who wish to defer payment of
their tuition, fees, and other institutional charges due at the time of registration may sign up
for a 3-month or a 10-month payment plan. The 10-Month Payment Plan is available for
the fall and winter semesters combined only. For details, visit www.nova.edu/bursar/payment/
payment_plans.html.
• Employer Tuition Assistance Plans
Undergraduate students participating in employer tuition assistance programs who wish to defer
tuition payment need to submit a letter of eligibility, a purchase order from their employer, or
details of the program from the employer’s human resources office or the company Web site. They
must also provide postdated payments (checks or credit card authorizations) for the amount of
tuition. Payment of tuition only (not fees), may then be deferred for five weeks after course
completion. A $75 deferment fee is charged for this service and must be paid at registration,
along with all other fees. Students must notify the Office of Student Financial Assistance if they
are participating in the Employer Tuition Assistance Plan. Graduate students should inquire with
their program office regarding any employer tuition assistance deferment plans.
• Florida Prepaid College Plan
NSU accepts and bills the Florida Prepaid College Plan for tuition, fees, and on-campus housing
costs. The plans are based on the tuition rates of the tax-assisted Florida public colleges and
universities. The difference between NSU tuition, fees, and on-campus housing costs and the
allocations through the Florida Prepaid College Plan is the sole responsibility of the student.
If a student is on the unrestricted plan, the student must designate a dollar amount for up to
the cost of tuition and fees. Students new to NSU must contact Florida Prepaid at 800-552-
GRAD to authorize NSU for payment. Additionally, each semester, the student must submit
a copy of the front and back of the ID card with a signed statement indicating the number of
credits or the amount to be invoiced. To learn more about the Florida Prepaid College Plan,

The Office of the University Registrar

services include, but are not limited to, course registration, transcript processing, name and address
change, loan deferment, enrollment and degree verification, grade processing, commencement, degree
conferral, transfer of credit services, and general university information. Additional information is
available at www.nova.edu/cwis/registrar.
