Student Accounts

Hope International University provides several payment options for funding your education. Please read through the Financial Options Guide and select that option you choose to utilize.


Payment Plan Options

Payment in Full – The annual expense of tuition, fees, room and board is due before the start of each semester.

Payment Plan – A mandatory monthly payment plan will be required, consisting of equally divided installments for the duration of the semester or term. Students must adhere to the payment schedule and complete all installments by the final payment deadline.

First Payment Requirement: To ensure eligibility for registration, receive your dormitory keys, move into your dorm, and pick up parking permits, students are required to submit the first monthly installment by the designated due date. This payment is necessary to be financially cleared to commence the semester.

Missing the First Payment Deadline: Failure to submit the first monthly installment by the designated deadline will result in the suspension of access to Canvas, meal card, and a hold will be added to the student’s account.

In addition, a late fee of $50 will be assessed each month any installment payment is overdue.

Failure to meet payments due to the University could result in being removed from class, dormitory, and cafeteria privileges and suspend ability to take finals and/or receive final grades. Students must have a zero balance on their account by the end of each academic term. If the account is not paid when due, the student will be responsible for all costs incurred by Hope International University to collect the unpaid balance due and owing.

Such costs may include, but are not limited to late fees, collections costs, attorney fees, and court costs.
