Payment Plan
Monthly Payment Plan
Creighton University has partnered with TouchNet to provide online financial services including electronic billing, online payments, and monthly payment plan options.
- Payments are withdrawn as scheduled monthly installments on the 5th of each month. A reminder email will be sent to the payment plan owner five calendar days in advance of the payment to confirm the date and payment amount. Please use this as a reminder to ensure fund availability in the account from which you have chosen to pay.
- Payment plans are semester specific. You must enroll in a new payment plan each semester.
- Balances from prior semesters cannot be carried forward.
- If there are changes to the student's account after enrollment in the payment plan, the plan will automatically adjust with the charges or credits.
- Payment plans may be created for accounts with balances at $200.00 or greater.

The Payment Plan is offered to students and their authorized users/parties as a monthly installment, automatic withdrawal system used to pay any outstanding debts on a student's tuition account. The plan is configured on a per-semester basis and is set up to pay the current semester in full, with a maximum of 5 monthly payments available. Payment Plan users will be automatically disenrolled from the program if they have more than two returned payments in any one semester. A Business Office Tuition Account Hold will be placed on the student account until the balance due has been paid in full. The payment will have Returned Item Hold until the method of payment has had sufficient time to clear the account. The student will not be allowed to register for future courses, obtain a diploma, or receive transcripts until the holds have been released. Users will be required to wait 24 hours after a hold has been placed to sign up for a new Payment Plan (for a future semester). The payment plan owner will receive an email notification that the Payment Plan is cancelled/terminated. Late fees will not be waived. After the Payment Plan has been terminated for the current semester it cannot be reinstated. However, students will be allowed to use the Payment Plan again during a future semester should they choose to do so.
