In order to help families address the cost of their higher education, Susquehanna offers a monthly, semester-based payment plan through Nelnet Campus Commerce.
The payment plan is a great option to relieve the pressure of making one, large payment and allows you to pay your semester bill over the course of three to six monthly payments. Keep in mind the payment plan is not a loan and does not require credit or loan applications. You can set the payment plan budget that meets your needs. Please keep in mind the fall 2024 tuition, fees and any applicable housing and meal charges are due in full on August 1 (unless you are enrolled in a payment plan that satisfies your total charges due for the semester over the course of the payment plan). The spring 2025 charges are due on January 10, 2025.
To enroll in a payment plan please log into your Student Account Center Portal via myNest. Parents will need to be granted access by the student prior to logging in to the account.
Please click this link for a video on “How to Set Up a Payment Plan”. To calculate the total amount of your fall & spring bills prior to the week of July 8, 2024 (fall) or January 10, 2025 (spring) please visit the Financial Plan website.
