GTCC students taking curriculum courses can opt to pay their tuition and fee charges through a monthly payment plan. This payment plan is an interest-free alternative to paying tuition and fees in one lump sum at the beginning of each semester.

Payment Plan details

  • Enrollment in a payment plan requires a setup fee and initial payment. The setup fee is non-refundable.
  • The number of installments for each payment plan is based on how early you set up the plan. (the earlier you sign up, the greater the number of installments) Fall and spring semesters have a maximum of four installments, and summer semesters have a maximum of three installments.
  • Payment plans are available through the posted drop/add period for each semester.
  • Payment plans are available for the fall, spring, and summer semesters.
  • Students can assign an authorized user to set up the payment plan.

Payment Plan Eligibility

To be eligible for a payment plan:

  • Students must be registered for classes and have a current semester balance of at least $200.00.
  • Students must have no defaults on a previous payment plan.
  • Payment plans can only be set up for current tuition and fees, and they do not cover in-store bookstore purchases.

How to Enroll

Payment plan enrollment is completed online through student Self-Service using the following steps:

  1. Login to self-service.
  2. Click on the Student Finance option.
  3. Select the Make a payment option.
  4. Click Enroll in Payment Plan.
  5. Select Current Term.

You will see plan details, a real-time breakdown of charges and credits, and installment due dates.

Follow the instructions to make payment and sign the payment plan agreement.

How Payments Work

During payment plan setup, the additional installments must be automatically scheduled to pay on the due date using the payment method chosen at enrollment.

If you need to edit the payment method used for future installments, you can do so by logging into Self-Service and using the above “How to Enroll” steps.

You will select Manage Plans, click on the Action button, and click on Edit to change your payment information.

Missed Payments

If payments are not paid on or by the installment due date:

  • A late fee of $10 will be charged for each past-due installment.
  • A hold will be placed on your student account until all payments are up to date. (A hold prevents you from registering for any additional classes in current or future terms)

No. Because of credit card security rules, we cannot accept payments over the phone.

A business office hold is placed on a student's account because of an outstanding balance. This hold prevents a student from registering for additional classes in current or future terms. Once payment is received for the past-due balance, the hold will be removed from the student's account.

Possible reasons for an account hold:

  • A student is using loans to cover the balance, and all three disbursements have not posted to cover the balance
  • A student has not paid a tuition, fee, and/or bookstore balance from the current or previous semester
  • A student has had a change in a financial aid award
  • A check used for payment is returned
  • A student has an unpaid library or parking fine violation

Past-due balances can be placed with a third-party collection agency and submitted to the N.C. Department of Revenue’s Debt Setoff Program for garnishment of your state income tax refund and/or garnishment of any N.C. lottery winnings.

International students receiving money outside of the U.S. to pay their tuition can make payments through the Flywire program. Payment must be received by the posted deadlines.

Parking in the Jamestown Campus parking deck is free to all students, faculty, and staff.
