Paying Your Bill
Tuition for the Fall 2010-Summer 2011 Academic Year is $1,000 per credit hour. For all new students (any program), a $500 matriculation fee must be paid at the time of your acceptance of admission. This fee will be applied toward your tuition balance for the first semester. For all students (including new students), the tuition balance must be paid by the first class meeting, as well as the student services fee ($200 for fall/spring semesters; $100 for the summer semester).
Tuition must be paid in full no later than the first day of class, unless a prior arrangement has been made with IWP. We utilize a vendor, Higher Education Services, for the collection of tuition payments, in order to provide maximum security of your consumer and personal information. Transactions with HES online are completely secure and encrypted; further, your personal information is completely protected with them. You may remit payment to HES by check, money order, electronic payment via ACH deduction from a checking account, or by credit card.
