Employer Tuition Reimbursement

Students who receive tuition reimbursement from their employer may delay payment for up to eight weeks after the last day of the term. To take advantage of this deferred payment plan, it is your responsibility to:

  • Submit a confirmation letter or company plan from your employer
  • Submit a completed Employer Reimbursement application the term you begin your enrollment and annually (fall term) thereafter
  • Sign up for Net.Pay to receive your statements electronically
  • If the application and/or company plan are received in the Student Accounts Office after the second week of the term, a $50 late transaction fee will be assessed
  • If your employer does not provide 100% reimbursement, you are responsible for paying the difference prior to the first class meeting
  • If your employer reimbursement plan has a maximum annual limit, CLU will cancel your deferral when that limit is reached. You will be responsible for payment of all tuition charges exceeding your policy limit prior to the first class meeting.

If the above steps are not completed by the end of the second week of the semester, a $50 late transaction fee will be assessed. Applications are available on campus or under "Forms" on the Student Accounts web page. The form may be downloaded and faxed to 805-493-3886 or completed online and transmitted electronically to the Student Accounts Office.

Students are ultimately responsible for payment of their fees, tuition and costs. Payment of your account is expected when your employer reimburses you or no later than eight weeks after the end of the term. You can elect to receive your statements online by enrolling, at no cost, for TouchNet (see above for details)

If full payment has not been received within eight weeks from the end of the term, interest of 1.25% will accrue monthly on the unpaid balance. A hold will be placed on your account to prevent future registrations until your balance has been paid in full.

Payment Options
  1. Payment in Full Tuition is payable in full at the time of registration or during the first week of the semester using one of the following methods:
    1. Personal check payable to CLU; or
    2. Credit/debit card payments may be made through Net.Pay, for a pre-authorized convenience fee.
  2. Monthly Payment Plan
    Students may make monthly payments in amounts no less than one-third of the original balance. There is a 1.25 percent monthly interest charge assessed to any account with an unpaid balance at the end of any monthly billing cycle.
