Tuition and Fees
Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University uses a balance forward system. Any unpaid charges will appear on subsequent bills as a previous balance. Just like your MasterCard or VISA statement, charges will not be itemized a second time. Only new charges will be itemized. You are advised to keep all your billing statements.
Payment deadline
A Financial Agreement and Disclosure must be on file (sent to all incoming freshmen) at the Student Accounting/Cashier's Office. The Financial Agreement and Disclosure designates to the University how you will be paying your tuition and fees. This agreement will remain on file until graduation or separation from the University.
All tuition and fees are due by the first day of class. However, the University will grant deferments from the following sources listed below:
Financial Aid: Upon receipt of your award notification and any requested documents, the Financial Aid Office will send you notification of award finalization and place a deferment on your account for the amount awarded.
Sponsorship: Any student whose tuition and fees are paid by a third party (Foreign Embassy, U.S. Government, Trust Account, sponsor, etc.), is considered a Sponsored student. Formal arrangements for Sponsor payments should be made with the Cashier's Office located in Building 13.
Veteran's education benefits:This deferment is obtained by contacting the Veteran's Affairs Office.
Financial aid disbursements
The Financial Aid Office will send you notification once your award is finalized. Any approved financial aid will be indicated on your invoice as estimated financial aid until it is actually paid. This amount will be applied toward your balance of tuition and fees. Any balance not covered by your estimated financial aid is your responsibility and is due according to published payment deadlines. An estimated financial aid amount shown on the tuition and fee bill reflects pending awards to be applied to the student account for payment towards tuition and fees.
Installment Plan: Our Flexible Plan which is the Net.Pay Tuition Payment Plan administered by Sallie Mae Solutions, is a convenient alternative to lump-sum semester payments. You pay your tuition in monthly installments with no interest charges. By spreading your payments throughout the year, your costs will be much easier to budget. You may use this plan to pay any amount (excluding flight costs and books) up to the total cost of education and may enroll at any time throughout the year. The earlier you sign up for the plan, the less your payment amounts each month will be.
