Payment Options

<p>Are there options to payment methods for this $57,000 a year education?
How do we pay UofC?</p>

<p>-Tuition and Housing together?
-Tuition and Housing separate?
-Monthly?
-Quarterly?</p>

<p>We have no clue yet, other than the initial deposit.</p>

<p>One bill for everything–tuition, room/board, fees, etc.</p>

<p>You pay quarterly, but there are also various (further spread out) payment plans, including a monthly plan. You’ll get more information about this soon.</p>

<p>Tuition and housing are billed together and are usually paid quarterly, due before the start of the next quarter. I believe there may also be some type of payment plan one can use, although I have only ever dealt with the quarterly payments.
Looks like more specific information about monthly payments and billing schedule is available here: [Information</a> for Students, Office of the Bursar](<a href=“http://bursar.uchicago.edu/students.html]Information”>http://bursar.uchicago.edu/students.html)</p>

<p>Hey does anyone know the process for getting a financial aid offer adjusted. Do I have to write a letter or can I get adjusted over the phone?</p>

<p>Blue - I’d suggest a call first and foremost, with a letter as well if there are lots of numbers and very technical explaining to do. </p>

<p>Also, this article seems helpful.

<p>Good luck in your requests! I’ll be asking right along with you, because no way in heck can I afford 50K a year. If you don’t mind me asking, what was your end cost said to be?</p>

<p>Well I received about 53000 in grants including a pell grant and an educational grant. And my parent contribution was listed as about 3000 dollars. That is why I want to appeal because my family’s income is only around 30000. I thought the contribution would be 0.</p>
