Secure, Integrated Payment Experience for Higher Education

Our tuition management solutions work together to keep students enrolled, help you manage (and resolve) past due accounts in-house, and maintain the highest levels of payment security and compliance available. Plus, we back up our solutions with experienced people and best-in-class service to make your payment experience even smarter.

Boost Tuition-Related Revenue

Making tuition payments convenient, secure, affordable, and flexible goes a long way toward helping students overcome one important barrier to staying in school.

Affordable Payment Plans

With payment plans that split up tuition throughout the term, we help make higher education more affordable for everyone.

Automated Billing

Institutions can set up automated bills for things like housing and tuition – and students can automate their payments as well.

Security First

We help institutions meet some of the highest levels of payment security compliance available, providing peace of mind to the students and families they serve.

Payments Anywhere

In a world where students can learn from anywhere, we help institutions safely accept online payments and resolve past-due accounts.

Our Offerings

Our innovative, secure, and flexible tools work together to simplify billing, payments, and refunds for your business office. Plus, we’ll help you make billing and payments easy for your students, so they can focus on staying enrolled and making the grade.

Payment Plans

Nelnet Payment Plans allow students to break up current term payments while in school. Once enrolled, students can set up automatic payments, check their balance, and monitor their account. If they fall behind on payments, our plans help them get back on track and stay enrolled in school.
