<p>DD hasn't received her financial aid yet either, although we know the school has started to send out awards to upperclassmen this week. We would like to set up our tuitionpay plan but it's not easy to figure out what to pay when we don't know the actual of pocket cost. Bills, however, are not sent until August at this school....so we do have some time. I'll just wait and do it when the financial aid comes (and I hope there is some...keep your fingers crossed).</p>
<p>I used "key bank" the last two years, they break payments to the school in 10 payments starting in June and ending in March. I had to do that early, but they just credit me when the bill comes. It's very easy to change the monthly payment, the first year, which became a financial aid nightmare for us, I changed it 3 times while figuring out what we could afford and what were to be loans. I like the 10 month option though, some colleges have 4 payment options, but that doesn't work as well with the budget.</p>
