GateWay Community College Enrollment Services

GateWay Community College offers a tuition payment plan to help make it easier to pay for college. The plan is interest-free and the earlier you sign up, the lower your payments will be because you will have more time to pay. The cost to participate in the program is a $20 non-refundable enrollment fee per semester.

A variety of monthly payment plan options are available. Each plan requires a same day down payment. After you sign up for a plan, payments are automatically deducted on the 5th of each month from your checking, savings, credit or debit card.

Keep in mind that the summer 2017 semester begins Tuesday, May 30 and the fall 2017 semester begins Saturday, Aug. 19. Students must register for classes prior to the first class meeting.

The payment schedule is as follows. The payment plan will not extend past the last day of class.
