Any parent, guardian or student at Wheeling Jesuit University is eligible for this plan. By joining the Tuition Payment Plan, you are able to pay your tuition on a monthly schedule instead of one lump sum each term. Upon receipt of your application and fee, ECSI will automatically establish your account and notify the college of your participation in the plan.

We offer monthly automatic deductions from a personal bank account (ACH), electronic bills sent to you via e-mail, and on-line payment. If you are interested in one of these payment options you can visit the ECSI website [www.ecsi.net] for more details. You can also indicate your preference for one of these options on the application.

This is an interest free plan. You can participate in this plan and pay monthly without accruing interest, by making your scheduled monthly payments on time.

As a plan participant, you make equal monthly payments beginning as early as May 1st. Please see the table that follows for the payment schedule options. ECSI offers electronic statements. If you prefer, ECSI will mail your monthly statement.

For the bank draft option, application and fee must be received at ECSI no later than the 25th of the previous month.

Please note that payments are due on the first of every month. Accounts with payments not received by the first of the month may be subject to account termination. If your account is closed, you are required to pay all charges, including interest, to Wheeling Jesuit University at that time.

ECSI provides a detailed status of your account to Wheeling Jesuit University each month.

The participant will make the required monthly payments by check or money order in U.S. Dollars, by credit card, bank draft (ACH), or electronic payment to Wheeling Jesuit University, c/o ECSI at such times and in such a manner that the full amount of each payment will be received on or before the first day of each month in which it is due. The amount of the monthly payment shall be credited to the participant's account with ECSI. A $20 service fee will be charged for all returned checks by ECSI and the service fee will be added to your next month's payments, in addition to any charges that may be assessed by your bank or school to your account.

ECSI will disburse the balance in the participant's account to Wheeling Jesuit University as required by the school until such a time as all funds are disbursed in full, or the account is closed for any reason. The obligation of ECSI to make disbursements to the school shall at all times be limited to the amount in the participant's account.

If any payment due is not received by the close of business on the last day of the month following the month in which it is due, the participant's plan will be terminated.

The participant may terminate the Agreement at any time by written notice to ECSI in which ECSI shall forward any funds in the participant account to the school unless written instructions to the contrary are received from the school. The Agreement will terminate in any event upon plan termination due to delinquency or upon the making of the final school disbursement.
