Payment Options

Tuition Payment Option Agreement (TPOA)

Degree-seeking students are required to submit a Tuition Payment Option Agreement (TPOA) each semester. The TPOA identifies the financial obligations a student undertakes at Saybrook University. Submission of a complete TPOA establishes the student’s financial commitment to her or his program and enables enrollment in classes, availability of instructors, and academic and administrative services.

If the TPOA is not completed by the due date, the student’s account will be placed on Administrative Hold [1]. Students are expected to meet their payment obligations according to their TPOA. Students will not receive monthly bills and are responsible for keeping track of their payment due dates.

Students relying on federal or private loans for tuition payment must have completed all necessary loan arrangements so that such loans are approved and on file with the Financial Aid Office by the first payment due date each semester. If the financial aid deadline is not met, students are required to make monthly out-of-pocket tuition payments of one-quarter of the total tuition due for the semester until the loan money becomes available.
