Payment Options
All students are eligible to take advantage of Pace University’s interest-free payment plans. These plans are available for the fall and spring terms in monthly installments, and there is a weekly plan option available for summer terms.
Please contact an enrollment specialist by phone at (914) 758-1080 with any questions or concerns you may have regarding financial aid eligibility.
Pace offers interest-free payment plans through the Payment Portal, allowing students or authorized users to pay tuition, fees, and housing in installments—an alternative to lump-sum payments. These are not loans, so no credit checks are required.
- Plans are available for fall, spring, and summer. Some plans may include a non-refundable enrollment fee each term. Payment plan re-enrollment is required every semester or academic year, depending on the plan desired.
- Plans are online-only. If you enroll after the start date, prior installments must be paid, but there is no late enrollment fee. A $25 late fee applies only if a scheduled installment is missed.
To enroll, prior semester balances must be cleared. Enrollment opens once your bill is available. Satisfy your bill by the semester’s billing due date to avoid penalties by paying your balance in full or enrolling in a payment plan.
After reviewing the options, log into the Payment Portal to choose your plan.

Consequently, loan repayment obligations may be triggered. Students should speak to a representative of the Financial Aid Office for more detailed information about the status of their financial aid during a leave of absence prior to submitting a Leave of Absence Application.
