The Semester American Installment Plan (SAIP) allows part-time and graduate students to pay for their semester expenses with three monthly payments. Please note that Full-time students are not eligible to participate in the SAIP plan. Student expenses that can be included in the SAIP calculation include tuition and fees, housing, meal plans, course fees, health unsurance, and program fees. These charges are calculated on a semester basis, and are offset by any financial aid, scholarships, or other credits. The difference is then divided into 3 equal payments which are due on the first of each month for the fall semester and on the fifteenth of each month for the spring semester. The payment due dates for fall semester plans are September 1, October 1 and November 1. Any payment received after the 15th of the month will result in a $40 late fee. The payment due dates for spring semester plans are on January 15, February 15 and March 15. A $30 nonrefundable processing fee is to be paid with the first installment.
Student Accounts stops taking SAIP applications on September 1st for the fall and January 15th for the spring. Applications for the SAIP are available at the Student Accounts Office, by calling (202) 885-3541, by sending us an e-mail to request a mailed or faxed application, or as a PDF document you can download below.*
*Please be advised that if you are sending a completed application electronically (via e-mail or fax), Student Accounts must have the first installment payment and the application fee in order to process the application.
