Payment Plan
The NelNet Payment Plan divides the balance owed to Gwinnett Technical College into smaller, monthly payments. This is not a loan; you don’t pay interest and you won’t need a credit check.
Financial Aid may not fully cover your tuition and fee charges. Nelnet can make paying out of pocket more manageable, and make completing your program much easier.
The maximum amount of a Plan Agreement is $4,500. Should a Plan participant’s balance exceed this amount, the overage will be added to the required down payment and be processed immediately upon enrollment in the Plan. The maximum amount of a Plan Agreement will increase on a percentage basis at the same rate as tuition to keep pace with tuition increases.
Payers must have 50% of their tuition paid and be current on the payment plan prior to the guarantee date. If not, the payment plan will be terminated on the guarantee date. All funds collected will be remitted to the institution.
Online payments will not be allowed within one week of the guarantee date.
