Seminary students must pay in full or enroll in a monthly payment plan at the beginning of the fall and spring semesters.

Option 1: Pay in Full

If you choose to pay in full each semester, payments are due on the following dates:

  • Fall—Full payment due on the first day of the term
  • Interim/Spring—Full payment due January 25
  • Summer—Full payment due on the first day of the term

See your options for making a payment.

Option 2: Enroll in a Monthly Payment Plan

If you’d prefer not to pay in full, you can enroll in a monthly payment plan each semester for all charges on your student account.

  • Go to the My Statements and Finances channel in MyBethel.
  • Click Make a Payment. This will direct you to TouchNet.
  • Once in TouchNet, click Enroll in Payment Plan and follow the prompts.

Enrollment Deadlines

  • Fall—September 25 (enrollment begins on approximately August 25th) 
    • Installment due dates: September 25, October 25, November 25, and December 25

You are responsible for payment reaching the Business Office in U.S. dollars when it is due, regardless of the source of payment. If you do not stay current on your monthly payments, you will be removed from the payment plan. 

Fees

  • Enrollment fee—$30 per semester
  • Late monthly payment fee—$25 per month
  • Non-sufficient funds fee—$25 per item (late fees may apply)

Online Monthly Statement

Around the 27th of each month, we'll send an email to your Bethel email address alerting you that your online monthly statement is available to view with access instructions.

Your monthly statements will not reflect specific information regarding your payment plan, such as due dates and monthly installment amounts. You can view your monthly statements in the My Statements and Finances channel in MyBethel. However, an email will be sent each time a transaction occurs on your student account.

Recalculating Monthly Payments

Your payments are recalculated on the 15th of each month. Monthly installments will be determined by the balance owed divided by the number of payments left on the payment plan. Therefore, monthly payment amounts may differ each month.

If you'd like to lower your monthly bills, you can choose to make a down payment before enrolling in a payment plan. The monthly installment payments will be based on the remaining balance on your student account.

Late Fees

There are no additional interest charges for students participating in the payment plan. However, if removed from the payment plan due to delinquent installment payments there will be a late fee of $10 per month for any unpaid balance.

Loans and Scholarships

Loans and financial aid that have been authorized and recorded by the Office of Financial Aid will be considered when calculating monthly payments. Make sure to apply for loans well in advance for the funds to be disbursed by the beginning of the term.

Outside scholarships and Church Partnerships Grants will reduce the amount you owe on your student account. Recalculation will not occur until the scholarships have been posted.
