The Student shall pay the College for room and housing services. The cost includes a $75 nonrefundable Student Activity
Fee ($37.50/semester) which will directly benefit the Student in the form of Residence Hall programs and activities. The
Student Activity Fee is included in ‘Housing’ charges outlined above. The contract charges also include a $310.00 ($155 per
semester) damage deposit. If all housing fees have been paid and the premises have been maintained in accordance with
the provisions of this License Agreement, the College will return the damage deposit to the Student upon termination of
his/her occupancy.
FIRST PAYMENT
Regardless of the term or contract type, the first payment of $500 is due at the time the housing application is submitted. The
$500 first payment will be applied towards your housing charges outlined above. Financial Aid cannot help with the $500 first
payment.
For any contract type (Full Year, Summer, Fall Only or Spring Only) Housing Students have two options to for making
payment. The first option is cash or credit card payment in full before the start of each term. The second option is to make
payments using the College’s third party payment plan administrator, Nelnet Business Solutions (NBS). Each option is
described below in more detail.
3
PAYMENT OPTION ONE - FULL PAYMENT PRIOR TO START OF TERM
Cash, check or credit card payment can be made in full prior to the start of the term. If the student expects to pay a
portion of their housing costs with financial aid or loan proceeds, payment prior to the start of the term can be made
for the difference between the students total housing charges and the amount of aid or loans expected. Please note
that the Financial Aid Office can only provide funding confirmation if the student has fully completed the
Financial Aid application process. If the student chooses the full pay option, either the full payment or full
payment less verified financial aid/loan proceeds must be made prior to the start of the term.
OPTION TWO NBS PAYMENT PLAN
Through Nelnet Business Solutions (NBS) a payment plan can be set up so the housing charges can be spread out
over multiple months. You can sign up for NBS through WebAdvisor at www.redwoods.edu
. The number of
payments available depends on how early the payment plan is set up. Each payment plan concludes before
registration starts for the following term. The earlier the payment plan is set up, the smaller the payments will be.
NBS uses automatic bank payments (ACH) or automatic charges to your credit or debit card, depending in which
option you choose when you sign up at https://webadvisor.redwoods.edu. Once the student signs up for Nelnet, all
charges posted to the student account will be included in the automatic payment plan, including registration fees and
housing charges. If the student does not want an individual charge to be added to their payment plan, a cash, check
or credit card payment can be made at the CR Business Office. If payment is not made at the business office, any
new charges on the student account will result in an adjustment to the NBS automatic withdrawal. Conversely, once
an NBS payment plan is set up, any credits or financial aid that are posted to the account will automatically cause an
adjustment downward of the remaining NBS automatic payments.
Questions about payment
options can be submitted to the Director of Residential Life or the CR Business Office.
See attached NelNet brochure included in this packet for payment plan timelines with NelNet.
PLEASE SELECT ONE LINE OPTION IN THE DROP DOWN BOX:
