Easy-to-use
Any parent, guardian or student at Jacksonville University is eligible for this plan.
By joining the Monthly 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.
Interest Free
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.
Simple Payment Schedule
As a plan participant, you make equal monthly payments beginning as early as April 1.
Please see the table that follows for the payment schedule options. ECSI offers electronic statements.
If you prefer, ECSI will mail your monthly statement.
