Tuition Payment Plan

How is the Payment Plan reflected on my Student Account?
Once you have enrolled in the Nelnet Payment Plan, you will see it listed under "Items that Require My Attention" in MySPC. The due date on your SPC Fee Schedule will not change and your payments to Nelnet will not be immediately reflected. As long as you are current on your Nelnet payments, your classes will not be dropped.

When will my Nelnet payments be reflected on my Student Account?
Your student account will reflect your Nelnet payments once Nelnet sends SPC your payment, which usually occurs about six weeks afer the start of classes.

What is the maximum amount available?
The maximum amount of a Plan Agreement will be $4,500 for in-state students and $4,500 for out-of-state students. Should a Plan participant’s balance exceed this amount, the overage will be added to the required down payment and be processed immediately upon enrollment in the Plan. The maximum amount of a Plan Agreement will increase on a percentage basis at the same rate as tuition to keep pace with tuition increases.

What is an Authorized Payer?
If someone is paying on your behalf, you MUST first set them up as an Authorized Payer.

Balance Adjustments
Please do not assume your balance will automatically be adjusted
. You should review your agreement by logging into MySPC and clicking on the Nelnet link on your status page or by logging into Nelnet. Once in Nelnet, you can check your account, edit your personal information or change the source of where your payments are drawn.

What if I no longer need to have a Tuition Payment Plan?
If your circumstances change because of any of the following:

  • You are awarded financial aid
  • You have other means to pay your tuition
  • You add or drop classes and your tuition and fee amount changes,

You will need to review and/or cancel your Tuition Payment Plan through Nelnet. You can do this by logging into Nelnet and going to the drop-down menu under Actions. If you do not cancel your payment plan, you must continue making payments until the payment plan is paid in full.

How can I pay off my Tuition Payment Plan?
Call Nelnet at 800-609-8056 to make a payment over the phone or log into your Nelnet account to make a payment online.

How do I receive a refund from Nelnet?
SPC processes all refunds from Nelnet through BankMobile Disbursements, a technology solution, powered by BMTX, Inc. If you do not have a refund preference with BankMobile Disbursements, visit https://disbursements.bmtx.com/refundchoices/.
