Alternative Loans
St. Edward's maintains information on a number of alternative loan programs. Generally, these loans are deferrable while the student is enrolled in school at least part-time. Additionally, these loans do not require a student to complete a need analysis document (the Free Application for Federal Student Aid), although they do require the completion of a loan application/promissory note. For more information regarding these various alternative loan programs, contact our Alternative Loan Coordinator at 512-416-5817.

Third-party billing
At a student's request, St. Edward's will bill employers or other entities (such as ROTC or trust funds) which pay for all or part of a student's tuition cost (this does not include family members who pay tuition costs on behalf of a student). Students who take advantage of this plan must submit documentation of their Third-Party's intent to pay before the start of each semester.

Employer Deferred Payment plan (EDPAY)
School of Management and Business may enroll in the Employer Deferred Payment plan (EDPAY). In this program, students pay a percentage of their tuition cost plus a small fee per class at the beginning of the semester. The remaining amount is due one month after the end of the semester.

Graduate business students must complete an enrollment packet to participate in this program. You may request this packet by contacting the Office of Student Financial Services at (512) 448-8523 or download from our Web site.

Monthly Arrangement Payment Plan (MAPP)
Students may take advantage of this payment plan to pay out their expenses over the course of a semester. The university does not charge interest for the deferred portion of the payment plan, although it does charge a nominal participation fee each semester. Students can elect to enroll in this plan during registration. To have the monthly payments automatically billed to a credit card, families or students should complete the Autobill Authorization Form, available through the office of Student Financial Serices, and submit it to our office.
