Do I have to pay the whole Fall bill in one sum at one time?

<p>I saw that on net-pay it says that I have to pay my fall semester bills by August 8th or I would face additional penalty charges. My parents and I have saved up enough money to pay the whole bill by August 8th but we were wondering if it was possible to pay the fall bill and the upcoming spring bill in monthly installments without getting an interest charge?</p>

<p>Or do I have to enroll in that Sallie Mae plan or whatever in order to do this? (I don't want to have to pay money to enroll in such a plan though....)</p>

<p>Also, a few more questions:</p>

<p>On my financial aid offer, I saw that it includes miscellaneous expenses of which I will be credited $1500. Likewise, it says that the offer includes $740 for books. So when will I get this money or it is already included in the fall bursar bill under the credit section (CR)? (I saw the grants and stuff in the CR section but not the aforementioned two.) Or do I get a check once I come to campus?</p>

<p>Finally, what about health insurance? When and where do I get billed for that? Does it show up on my spring bursar bill?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance for the answers.</p>

<p>a) the installment plan has a minimal fee, and allows you to pay in either 12, 8, or 6 month plans. other than through the installment plan, you cannot pay monthly.</p>

<p>b) once you pay your part of the bill, any left over expenses on the bursar bill will be covered by your FA. if your amount of FA is larger than the amount of expenses, (it should be), you will get a refund later. However, you have to pay for books and miscellaneous expenses out of pocket and reimburse yourself with the FA refund.</p>

<p>c) SHIP will be reflected on the september bill.</p>

<p>I think you had to sign up for the payment plan before August 1st. Payments for this year began on May 1st</p>

<p>Deadline is August 31st for the Cornell Installment Plan (CIP). Your first payment will likely be for a few months worth since the payment plan schedule begins early in the summer.</p>

<p>is there a different between CIP and TuitionPay? or are they just the same?</p>
