Additionally, a bachelor’s degree can be worth millionsof dollars over the course of an adult’s working years.

Additionally, salary.com, a technology leader in compensation management, saysthat the quality of your education can affect your salary. Earning a degree from a topschool or program typically has a positive influence on pay.

1. Note: VTAG regulations state, “The exact amount of each academic year’s [sic. VTAG]award is determined by the funding amount appropriated by the General Assembly andthe total number of eligible applicants. If funding is insufficient to fully award all students,it is possible that some students will receive no award (SCHEV Bulletin 11-20-00), or, that thefull amount may be paid in the fall and a lesser amount, if any, in the spring. Grantrequests must be processed by July 31 in order to incur a ‘Category 2’ priority for fundingestablished for new students to the VTAG program.” We’ve based this amount on awardsmade to SCS students during the 2007-08 school year. 2. Although we anticipate a mod-est tuition increase each academic year, future rates have not yet been established, sowe’ve based this estimate on anticipated tuition rates for the 2009-10 academic year.

The University of Richmond has made a tuition paymentplan available through TUITION PAY.If a deferred payment plan is desired, the University of Richmond has arranged tomake available the services of Sallie Mae. This is a summary of the program. Abrochure is available upon request from the Office of Student Accounts.

What is Tuition Pay?Tuition Pay by Sallie Mae is an educational financing company that provides fami-

lies and students with a low cost plan for budgeting tuition and other educationexpenses. The Tuition Pay Monthly plan is NOT a loan program, therefore no debt isincurred. There is no interest or finance charge assessed by Tuition Pay on the unpaidbalance due to the college. The only fee to budget payments through Tuition Pay is a$35.00 per semester non-refundable enrollment fee. Payments made through TuitionPay are considerably less expensive than the cost of obtaining loans, paying with creditcards, or budgeting through other interest or fee-charging payment plans. There is nocredit search or qualifications necessary to use Tuition Pay.

One of the reasons why the cost to budget with Tuition Pay is so affordable isbecause payments through Tuition Pay are made by using automatic payments fromyour bank. The automatic payment helps you budget tuition payments in a convenientway which ensures that the college will receive dependable and consistent tuition pay-ments. With Tuition Pay you never miss a payment and you save the time and expenseof writing and mailing checks.

How does the automatic payment work?Automatic payments are simply payments that you authorize your bank to make on

your behalf on a specific date each month. The amount paid by your bank is a prede-termined amount that you have authorized. Your bank will make these payments fromeither your checking or savings account, according to the instructions you have provid-ed on your agreement with Tuition Pay. Payments will be made until the total amountdue to the college is paid in full. Automatic payments are used to pay mortgages, lifeinsurance premiums, car payments, utilities, and other types of bills.

When you use Tuition Pay to pay your school tuition, your bank sends your pay-ment on the 5th of the month directly to the bank that Tuition Pay uses to collecttuition payments. Before any payment is made, Tuition Pay provides evidence of your

Tuition Payment PlanWEEKEND COLLEGE

UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND School of Continuing Studies10

Page 11: booklet2008-2009

authorization for tuition payments to your bank. Your bank will usually verify thisauthorization with you and then set up the payment schedule. It is important toremember that Tuition Pay and your college never see your bank account or have anydirect access to your account. You never lose any control of your account. The auto-matic payment process is strictly controlled by state and federal laws. With Tuition Payyour payments are made on the 5th of each month.

Budget PeriodTo qualify for the 3-month payment plan, Tuition Pay must receive student applica-

tions by August 10th for the Fall semester or December 10th for the Spring semester.The budget period is August through October for the Fall semester and Januarythrough March for the Spring semester. The Tuition Pay payment plan is not availablefor courses offered during the Summer semester.

How to Apply for Tuition PayTo enroll in the Tuition Pay Monthly plan simply go to their website at

www.tuitionpay.com and click on “enroll now”.

What if I have questions about my account?There is always an account representative who can answer questions about your

Tuition Pay account once it has been established. You can call 1-800-635-0120 andspeak to an account representative. You may also contact the Student Accounts Officeat (804) 289-8147.
