Payment Plans, which may also be known as Deferred Billing Plans, allow the student to pay tuition and other charges over time in set increments, rather than one lump sum. Since institutions operate slightly differently from one another, CAMS provides much flexibility in the creation of such plans. Students may have one or more plans assigned, there may or may not be service fees, down payments or initial payments, interest charged, etc. You also have the option of moving students who do not maintain satisfactory progress in their specified payment plan to another plan in bulk.
