Nelnet Payment Plan

To help you meet your educational expenses, Galveston College is pleased to offer Nelnet Payment Plan as a convenient budget plan. It is not a loan; therefore, you have no debt, there are no interest or finance charges assessed, and there is no credit check.

The cost to budget monthly payments is a $30 per semester non-refundable Nelnet Payment Plan Enrollment Fee. The Nelnet Payment Plan Enrollment Fee is automatically deducted from your account WITHIN 14 days of your agreement being posted to the Nelnet Campus Commerce system.

The down payment will be deducted immediately. The remaining payments are automatically deducted on the 5th of each month (Fall or Spring) from a checking or savings account. You may also have your payment charged to your credit card. If you elect to use your credit card, only VISA, MasterCard, or Discover Card may be used. Please note: Check, Debit, and ATM Cards may be returned unpaid due to daily limits restrictions imposed by your bank.

If your payment on the 5th (Fall or Spring) is not successful, it will be reattempted on the 20th of the month. Any time a payment is returned, you will receive notification from Nelnet Campus Commerce on how the returned payment will be handled. Your Nelnet Campus Commerce agreement will be processed until the balance owed is paid in full.

For each returned payment, Nelnet Campus Commerce assesses a $30 Returned Payment Fee. Returned Payment Fees are automatically deducted from the account you have provided. If your  Returned Payment Fee is returned, it will be reattempted. 

Nelnet Payment Plan Enrollment Fees and Returned Payment Fees are subject to change in future academic years or semesters, unless otherwise agreed by Nelnet Campus Commerce and Galveston College. 

If you have questions, please call Galveston College Business Office at (409) 944-1362 or Nelnet Campus Commerce at (800) 609-8056.
