Information on the tuition refund policy can be found below.
Payment in full is due prior to the first day of the term in which you are registered unless satisfactory financial arrangements are made in advance with the bursar's office. Pending financial aid, enrollment in a payment plan, and anticipated military benefits are considered satisfactory financial arrangements. If payment in full is not received by the start of the term, and no financial arrangements are approved and in place, then a hold will be placed on your student account, you may be charged a late fee, and you will not be permitted to register for future terms or receive transcripts until your student account balance is paid in full. Learn more about the available payment plans by expanding the Payment Plans section below.
For students in our graduate-level programs, DelVal offers the option of deferring payment until 45 days after the end of the term. The deferred payment plan is the option if you wish to avoid the placement of a hold on your student account. Students who do not enroll in a deferred payment plan for the term(s) in which their courses are scheduled must pay in full or obtain federal or private loans by the start of the term.
DelVal works with TouchNet Information Systems, Inc.

What are the terms and conditions?
Below are some important details about DelVal's payment plans.

The scheduled deferred payment is automatically withdrawn/charged on the specified due date. The payment cannot be extended past the 45th day after the end of the term for any reason.

Installment reminder emails are sent only to the user whose credentials are used to enroll in the plan. The Authorized User setup link is on the landing page after you log in to TouchNet.
