Enrolling in a payment plan at TAMUK allows you to spread out tuition and fee payments over time instead of paying in one lump sum, making college expenses more manageable. It helps with budgeting, can prevent late fees or registration holds, and ensures you stay enrolled even if you can't pay the full amount upfront. For more information please view our TAMUK Catalog and Financial Aid webpages.
Here is a quick step-by-step guide to get enrolled into a plan today!
Overall, the university requires all students with less than 30 completed semester credit hours (dual enrollment hours are not to be considered because they were not received while living on campus) or under 20 years of age to reside in the university residence halls. However, you may qualify for an exemption and will need to complete the required form located here.
Keep in mind, students who decide to live in a dorm will be required to sign up for a payment plan with at least 25% of their tuition and fees while students living qualifying for an exemption will have to to commit at least 15% of their tuition and fees.
