Payment Plan Options

Quarterly Option

This is customary an default option with the full tuition and fees being due on or before each quarterly tuition due date. This plan incurs no additional fees.

Payment Plan Options

If a monthly or annual payment plan is desired, students must contact Student Accounts at least one week prior to the tuition due date and request a payment plan. The customary late fee will be assessed if arrangements are not made and the first payment is not received by the tuition due date.

Monthly Option

Payment plans must result in the student account being paid in full prior to the end of the quarter.

Payment plans for each quarter’s costs may be established for no more than 3 equal payments with 3 installments on the same day (student’s choice) each month.

Payment plans must be via ACH/EFT or credit card on file.

Each payment plan installment will incur a payment plan fee (if there are 3 installments, there will be 3 payment plan fees assessed).

Tuition Discounts for Groups

Group discounts are available for 3 or more students who work for the same employer (from a 5% tuition discount for 3 to 6 students up to a 10% tuition discount for 7 or more students from the same employer). This option is not open to students receiving institutional financial aid.

Note: BGI appreciates students paying by check or electronic funds transfer (EFT) because credit card fees are a significant cost to BGI.
