Pay In Person or by Mail at the Business Office
Cash, electronic check, Visa, MasterCard or Discover accepted. Harper is now processing checks electronically. Be aware there will be a $25 fee for any declined checks.
If you receive Financial Aid…
Students receiving Federal, State, Private or Institutional (Harper College) Grants, Scholarships or Student Loans must sign up for e-Cashier's Deferred Payment Plan. Failure to do so may result in dropped classes.
Log in to MyHarper Student Portal. Select the My Payments tab, then select Set Up Payment Plan/e-Cashier. If you have accepted financial aid on your student account you will automatically be directed to the deferred payment plan.
If there is no accepted aid on your student account you should contact the Office of Student Financial Assistance to correct your account before setting up a payment plan. For more information, please refer to Deferred Payment Plan Details PDF.
If you do not pay by the due date…
Your class(es) will be dropped for non-payment. You will still be responsible for paying the $15 non-refundable registration fee. If you are dropped for non-payment and re-enroll, you will be assessed another non-refundable $15 registration fee. Students dropped for non-payment will not be able to attend class until they have re-enrolled and paid for class(es).
If you expect credits to your student account…
If you are eligible for tuition reduction due to employment in district, agreements with other schools or businesses, or other adjustments, please allow up to one hour for processing.
Third Party Sponsors
Third party billing is available for those students whose employers will pay for their tuition and fees regardless of their grades or class attendance.
If your tuition will be paid for by a third party, you must obtain either a voucher or a letter on letterhead indicating the third party's willingness to be billed for your classes. The letter must include the student's name, address and billing instructions along with an authorizing signature from the third party. A new voucher or letter is required each term and must be turned into the Harper College Business Office, A214, main campus by your payment due date to ensure you will not be dropped from your classes.
- Upon receipt of the Third Party Billing authorization the college will directly bill the company for the student's current term tuition and fees.
- The college does not monitor the student's grades or class attendance. It is the student's responsibility to furnish his employer with any information regarding attendance or grades.
- If for any reason the third party defaults on payment, the charges will be reinstated on the student's account and payment will become the responsibility of the student.
College Illinois
If you participate in College Illinois please notify the Harper College Business Office, A214, main campus or at 847.925.6880 of your intent to have your tuition and fees billed directly to College Illinois. This must be done by the payment due date to avoid being dropped for non-payment. The student is responsible for any charges that will not be covered by the plan and should also check with the Harper Business Office whenever schedule changes are made. This must be completed every semester that the student attends.
Other 529 Plans
All other 529 plans must be contacted directly by the student to request payment. Be sure to allow sufficient time for funds to be received by Harper in order for the payment to be posted by the designated payment due date.
Employer Reimbursed Tuition
If your employer will be reimbursing you for your tuition, you must pay your account in full or set up a payment plan by the payment due date and submit the receipts to your employer.
