Installment options include 4 installments, 3 installments, and 2 installments. A missed installment may lead to a $50 late fee and a hold that could prevent further registration.
Third-Party Sponsors
Third-party sponsors are outside organizations or entities that have entered into a formal arrangement to pay a specific amount of tuition and/or fees on behalf of the student. The student is responsible for providing the third-party authorization to the University and in the event of non-payment, the responsibility remains with the student to satisfy any outstanding balance.

Former Student Payments
Pre-Collection
Our collection team manages the pre-collections of student accounts. Upon failure to satisfy an outstanding balance, the University will place a financial hold on a student account. The unpaid student account balance will be considered past due and moved into pre-collections. Students will continue to receive multiple communications, including emails, statement notices, and letters to request payment for outstanding balances.
Past Due Collections
Once an account becomes delinquent, UC collections will begin active collection proceedings according to our policy. This may include direct contact with students, mailed statements, or emails. Once the University has exhausted its efforts, the delinquent balance will be turned over to our collection agency partners. At that point, the student will need to communicate directly with their assigned collection agency.
Collection Agency Partners

- Key2Recovery 877-322-5392
- Williams & Fudge 803-329-9791
Please be advised an outstanding or collection account balance will result in a financial hold, which prevents registration in any current or future terms. Once a student鈥檚 account balance is satisfied in full, the financial hold will be removed from the student's account. It is important to note that removing a financial hold does not explicitly imply that a student is clear for registration. There may be other University holds that prohibit registration in a current or future term.

Payment Plans
Payment plans are offered as a courtesy to UC students. Currently, registered students are able to enroll in a plan which affords the option of spreading out payments, instead of paying all tuition/fees at the start of the semester. Students agree to pay their monthly installment by the 5th of each month, and acknowledge their account will be charged a $50 late fee if payment is processed after that date. We reserve the right to place a payment plan hold on any account where students consistently pay late and/or miss their scheduled payments. A payment plan hold will restrict students from being able to enroll in a payment plan in future terms; thereby making any outstanding tuition and fees due at the start of each semester. When accounts are not paid in full, an A/R hold will be placed, which will restrict registration for current/future terms.
* Students are not permitted to rollover balances from prior terms into a payment plan.

Payment Plan Auto-Enrollment
Cumberlands' for students will allow students to better manage their educational expenses by spreading the costs throughout the semester. This plan is for students who do not make financial preparations for any given semester. Students who plan ahead and have satisfactory payment arrangements to cover their educational expenses in full will not be impacted.
Tuition and fees are due at the start of each semester; otherwise, any student account balance will be subject to auto-enrollment in a payment plan. The University reserves the right to auto-enroll any student who has not paid their balance in full at the conclusion of the add/drop period and charge a $50 enrollment fee* at the University鈥檚 discretion. Payments will be due the 5th of each month for the current semester (for example 鈥 auto-enrollment date September 15th 鈥 due date October 5th) and if not kept current, a hold will be placed on the student鈥檚 account restricting registration.
A late payment plan fee of $50 will be charged if the installment payment is not received in full within five days of the payment due date. Additionally, in the absence of satisfactory payment (i.e. 鈥 balance paid in full/covered in full by financial aid) or if the student account is or becomes delinquent, the University will place a hold restricting registration. Please note, the University reserves the right to drop future term registration based on any unsatisfactory payment and/or missed payment(s).
*Not wanting to be auto-enrolled and charged a $50 enrollment fee? Student account balance needs paid in full or enrolled in a payment plan of choice prior to the 3rd week of classes!
If your balance is not paid in full by the start of classes, then yes. Otherwise, you will be auto-enrolled into a plan.
Click on 鈥樷 Then follow the prompts. (Important note 鈥 Prior to signing up for a payment plan, you must have scheduled courses for the current term鈥檚 tuition and fees to reflect on your student account).
If you pay after the 10th of the month, you will be charged a $50 late fee.
When you add classes (your account is charged), then the charges are added to your payment plan. I. E. 鈥 If your account was charged $500 for an added course and you had 2 installments left, each installment would increase by $250.
If you do not pay your full installment amount by the 5th, then a hold is placed on your account until your plan is brought current. Once paid, it takes 1 hour for the hold to lift.
If you have a scheduled payment but go in and manually make a payment with the same card, the system will see your manual payment as an extra payment. The system will take the extra payment as another installment payment (potentially closing your plan if you only had 2 payments left).
You failed to pay your monthly installment in full by the 10th.

We are unable to take payment over the phone; it must be completed online or at the Student Financial Center.
Once enrolled in payment plans, they close out once that amount is paid in full. If you drop classes, the plan would close if you receive 100% refund and your balance is -0-. University administrators are not able close them for you.
If you do not pay in full and close out your payment plan, it will remain open. Prior balances must be paid in full to enroll in a current payment plan. Please email听studentfinancial [at] ucumberlands.edu (studentfinancial[at]ucumberlands[dot]edu) if your prior balance is paid in full and the prior payment plan is still active.
No, the 5th is the due date for all payment plans.
