The University of Tampa’s Tuition Payment Plan (TPP)

The University’s tuition payment plan (TPP) offers a financial planning option that gives students a line of credit to pay tuition, residence hall charges and meal costs in monthly installments. Through TPP, the student receives the benefit of not making a lump-sum payment at the beginning of each semester. There are no interest or finance charges, but there is a nonrefundable contract fee of $65. The application filing date closes Aug. 1 for the fall 2018 semester and Jan. 5 for the spring 2019 semester.

Payments are made in 12 monthly installments, beginning June 1 and ending May 1. The University considers each semester separately for payment of charges. Payments made June through November are applicable to the fall semester, while payments made December through May apply to the spring semester. Additional fees, credit hours, books and supplies are not included in the installment plan. Payment for any additional charges not covered in the installment plan must be paid as requested.

To participate, the student must be enrolled for 12 or more undergraduate credit hours.

The Bursar’s Office reserves the right to revise the TPP worksheet at, but not limited to, the time of enrollment. The Financial Aid Office also reserves the right to revise a student’s financial aid award at, but not limited to, the time of enrollment. Please see the terms and conditions section of the TPP brochure.

The student is responsible for requesting, in writing, that his or her TPP account be adjusted because of a change in charges (change of room assignment, for example) or a financial aid award. Adjustment requests must be received by Sept. 1 for the fall semester or Feb.1 for the spring semester.

The University holds the student accountable for payment, regardless of the source(s) of the payments. Student services such as the release of transcripts or diploma will be withheld until the account has been fully satisfied.

If installments are not made when due, the University reserves the right to cancel the TPP contract, and the total balance of the student’s account will be due immediately. Future participation in the installment plan may be jeopardized, as well as participation in registration.

New undergraduate students wishing to enroll in the installment plan should consult the orientation information on SpartanWeb. Continuing students may contact the Bursar’s Office or visit www.ut.edu/tuition/paymentoptions for additional information.
