Payment Plan Options

Option 1: Semester payment

  • Pay tuition, fees and all other charges directly to Macalester College as stated on the pre-term bill you will receive prior to the beginning of each semester
  • Fall 2009 semester payment is due August 15, 2009
  • Spring 2010 semester payment is due January 15, 2010

Option 2: Interest-Free Monthly Payment Plan available through Tuition Management Systems (TMS)

  • $75 annual non-refundable enrollment fee per semester
  • No finance or interest charges
  • TMS accepts checks, money orders, credit cards or bank drafts
  • The college will credit your account with the sum contracted for that semester
  • Option of making 9 or 10 monthly payments
  • Adjustments to the TMS credit result only if a contract becomes delinquent with TMS or if there is a change in the original contract amount.
  • Dependent upon your choice of monthly payment options, your monthly payment may not be the same each month. The payments are set up to pay by semester even if you are enrolled for the academic year.
  • Very Important: All backpayments are required at the time of enrollment if the family is enrolling after the plan start date. All new accounts must have a status of 'Current' or 'Prepaid'.  Macalester College will not process the TMS account until the account is up-to-date.
