A tuition payment option is available to Jefferson College of Health Sciences students. This plan is administered through Academic Management Services (AMS) located in Providence, Rhode Island. 

The AMS Plan enables students to pay all or part of their expenses in 9 equal monthly installments without interest. The only cost to the student is a $60 annual enrollment fee. Also included is tuition payment insurance on the unpaid balance at no additional cost.

AMS plan brochures are available from the Bursar's Office, Office of Financial Aid and the Admissions Office. You can also enroll on their interactive website at www.tuitionpayenroll.com.

A returned check fee in the amount of $25 will be added to the student account along with the amount of the returned check.

A 1098-T will be mailed to students in January.  The 1098-T informs the student of the possibility of a tax credit.  The amount of eligible charges, along with scholarships and grants are provided on each 1098-T.  It is the student's responsibility to determine eligibility for the tax credit.

Charges for rooms in the residence hall are billed on a semester basis. The method of determination of refunds for students who vacate their room is the same as shown for tuition refunds, except that the administrative fee in this case is $200. The $250 room deposit offsets this fee unless the student has caused damage to his/her room or to the residence hall.
