Payment Plans

Biola offers two different payment options for your semester expenses. In addition to the payment plan options detailed below, please make note of the following details:

• Enrollment Requirements and Financial Holds: Enrollment cannot be completed each semester/session until any past due amount has been paid in full, and you complete all enrollment tasks found at myaccount.biola.edu including paying in full or enrolling into a payment plan. If you are enrolling into the payment plan after the plan has started, any missed installments are due at the time of enrollment into the payment plan.
• Semester expenses include tuition and other student fees, after authorized financial aid has been factored into your balance. Fees may include, where applicable: class fees, university housing, meals, parking permit and health insurance (if required and not already covered under an approved private health insurance plan).
• If you are not paying your semester expenses in full, you must sign up for your payment plan through My Account within the “Payment” task.

• Five Payments — The five-payment option is for families who wish to pay in five equal installments during the fall and spring semesters. There is an $85 plan fee due at the time of enrollment, and if installment payments are late, a 1% fee will be assessed on the account balance. If enrolling in the payment plan after the plan has already started, any missed installments are due at the time of enrollment in the payment plan. Automatic payments are required to use this plan (for U.S. bank accounts only).
• Two Payments — The two-payment option is for families who wish to pay their tuition in two installments during the summer semester only. This means that you will pay an initial 50% first installment by the published summer deadline. The second and final installment will be due mid-June. There is a $35 plan fee due at the time of enrollment, and if installment payments are late, a 1% fee will be assessed on the account balance.
• One Payment — The one-payment option is for families who wish to pay their semester expenses in full upon enrollment (each semester). Payment includes tuition, class fees, university housing, meals, parking permit fees and health insurance (after authorized financial aid has been accounted for). There is no plan fee. If you are paying in full, you do not need to sign up for a payment plan.
