Deferred Payment Plan

Carolina Technical College is pleased to offer a monthly payment plan to enable you to more easily afford your educational expenses. The deferred payment plan provides you with a low cost plan for budgeting tuition and books. The administrative fee assessed by Central Carolina is a non-refundable enrollment fee of $25 per semester. If there is an outstanding balance on your account, it must be paid in full before registering for the next term.

How to Enroll

To enroll, just complete and sign the payment plan form. Central Carolina will provide you with the total amount that may be budgeted. Enrollment will be held in the Student Services Center at the Main Campus in Sumter on May 12 - 16, 2008 and in the Central Carolina Business Office before and after these dates. Students may also enroll at the Kershaw Campus, Shaw Center, F.E. Dubose Campus and Lee County site.

Payment Schedule – Summer 2008

Agreements must be received by the Central Carolina Business Office by May 23, 2008, in order to start payments on June 20, 2008. All payments will be processed on the 20th of each month. If you pay after the due date, you will be assessed a $25 late payment fee. If your enrollment status changes, it is your responsibility to contact the College Business Office at least 10 days prior to the payment due date. Summer tuition will be budgeted over two payment dates: June 20 and July 20.

The down payment - 35% down for tuition/books (if balance is greater than/equal to $200) - must be paid when the agreement is signed. Payment plan fees are in addition to any other fees you may incur (such as registration late fees).

Bank drafts from checking accounts are available for monthly payments.

A letter will be sent to you confirming enrollment in the program.

An invoice will be mailed before the due date to the current address on our system.

Termination of the agreement must be made within 10 days before the first payment date by notifying the Central Carolina Business Office.
