Payment Plans
All charges are due and payable at the time of registration (full payment) for each semester unless one of the following alternative payment plans is selected.

Monthly Payment Plan:
Total tuition and fees will be divided into equal monthly payments within the term/semester enrolled. Equal monthly payments are due the 10th of each month during the term/semester. A per semester service fee of $25.00 is assessed. If the first payment is charged on a credit card, subsequent payments will also be charged on the correct date unless otherwise stated.

Tuition Reimbursement Plan:
This plan allows the student to defer payment of tuition that is reimbursable by a company. To qualify, the student must provide a copy of the company reimbursement policy and verification of eligibility. There is a $25.00 per semester participation fee. Those fees that are not reimbursable by the company must be paid by the student using one of the payment plans listed. Grades will not be released until the student's portion of the balance has been paid. Company reimbursement is due upon receipt of EACH grade card. Students can be held responsible for payment if company reimbursement is delayed beyond thirty days of issue date for each term's grade card.

Financial Aid
The Federal Stafford Loan (Subsidized or Unsubsidized) is available to students who need financial assistance.

To qualify for a student loan the graduate student must:

  1. Be degree-seeking.
  2. Be enrolled for a minimum of 6 hours per semester.
  3. Demonstrate financial need (for subsidized loan only).
  4. Not be in default on a former loan or owe a refund on any grant.
  5. Complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and the Malone Financial Aid Application and submit to Malone's Financial Aid Office by the first day of the month before the semester begins (April 1 for Summer, August 1 for Fall, December 1 for Spring).

Note: One fourth of tuition is payable at registration if financial aid documents are not received in a timely manner. Reimbursement will be made if the loan is fully disbursed and there is available credit.

Note: Tuition and other charges are subject to change without notice. Malone will not release grades, transcripts, diplomas or teaching licenses until all accounts are settled. All charges must be paid in full before graduation. All accounts must be paid in full before enrollment in another semester is permitted. Interest may be charged on any unpaid balance. Malone reserves the right to use collection agencies and/or take appropriate legal action to collect any unpaid tuition and fees owed to Malone. All associated collection costs will be the responsibility of the student.
