We do everything we possibly can to make it easier for you to afford the Holy Cross experience. That’s why we’ve collaborated with Nelnet and Notre Dame Federal Credit Union (NDFCU) to provide semesterly payment plans for students.
Using a payment plan allows you to cover your semester bill by making monthly installments over the semester. Remember:
- Payment plans are only for one semester at a time.
- A nonrefundable enrollment fee is required to set up a payment plan for each semester.
- The enrollment fee and down payment are due at the time the plan is set up.
