Convenient, Interest-Free, Affordable – Automatic Payment Plan
- To help you meet your educational expenses, Rochester Community & Technical College is pleased to offer Nelnet Business Solutions as a convenient budget plan. It is not a loan; therefore you have no debt, there are no interest or finance charges assessed and there is no credit check.
- The cost to budget monthly payments is a $30 per semester nonrefundable enrollment fee. If you elect to use the full payment option, you must enroll online, and there is a $2 nonrefundable enrollment fee. Please remember, full payments are deducted immediately! The enrollment fee is automatically deducted from your account WITHIN 14 days of your agreement being posted to the system.
- The tuition payment is automatically deducted on the 5th of each month from a checking or savings account. You may also have your payment charged to your credit card. If you elect to use your credit card, only VISA, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover Card may be used. Please note: Check, Debit, and ATM Cards may be returned unpaid due to daily limit restrictions imposed by your bank.
- If your payment on the 5th is not successful, it will be reattempted on the 20th of the month. Any time a payment is returned, you will receive a notification on how the returned payment will be handled. Your agreement will be processed until the balance owed is paid in full.
- For each returned payment, you will be assessed a $30 returned payment fee. Please note, that your financial institution may also assess you for a fee. Returned payment fees are automatically deducted from the account you have provided. If your returned payment fee is returned, it will be reattempted. Returned payment fees are payable to Nelnet Business Solutions.
- Enrollment fees and returned payment fees are subject to change in future academic years or semesters. Interest earned on all custodial funds held by Nelnet Business Solutions is payable to Nelnet Business Solutions.
- To enroll in the tuition payment plan, simply register online through Nelnet.
- If you have questions, please call the Rochester Community & Technical College Business Office at 507-285-7472 or Nelnet Business Solutions at 800-609-8056.
