Payment Plans
Payment plans are offered by All Campus, a Boston University partner. These payment plans are not loans; they are simply a way to break up your program payment over a period of time. Therefore, we do not require you to sign any sort of agreement. Simply select the “payment plan option” in the Payment Plans section of your shopping cart, and a pro-rated amount will be automatically deducted from your credit card.
Students may qualify for alternative funding sources including loans and funding through affiliation with the US Military.
Students who qualify for VA funding should contact Boston University for assistance by calling 617-353-4497 or by emailing cpe@bu.edu.
Third Party Payments
We also accept payments from 3rd party entities, such as employers and state training offices. Funding is often authorized with a letter of credit to Boston University. Checks should include the student’s name and be made out to Boston University.
