Pay My Bill

Once you are registered for classes at Jefferson, you will be billed for tuition and fees. We no longer send bills by US Postal Service – you will need to access SOAR and check your email to receive your tuition bill information.

Your tuition may be deferred based on certain financial aid awards, such as TAP and PELL. Under special circumstances, outside agencies and companies providing tuition assistance to their employees may also be billed at later dates. If you do not qualify for these types of aid, you must pay your tuition and fees by the date indicated on your bill.

There are three ways to pay:

1. You can pay in person with cash or check at the Financial Services Office (Enrollment Services, Jules Center, Building 6, Suite 6-010)
2. You can pay online with credit card or e-check
3. You can arrange for automatic deductions from your bank account or credit card through the Automatic Payment Plan

Authorized Payer/Parent

A student has the ability to authorize a person(s) to be Authorized Payer(s). This role will allow the Authorized Payer to view the student's tuition bill using a login name and password provided by the student. The Authorized Payer(s) will be able to make a payment on the student's account using a credit card or e-check. The Authorized Payer and Student will be able to view all payments made to their account by the Authorized Payer.

To become a Authorized Payer, the student needs to enroll the person from their SOAR account. Once the Authorized Payer is set up they will receive an email with the information regarding the login and web link. The Student has to give the Authorized Payer the password they set up. Please do not contact the College for the password; the college will not have access to the password the student set up for the Authorized Payer.

A student can set up as many Authorized Payers as necessary.

Pay by Automatic Deduction

Tuition Payment Plan
The Automatic Tuition Payment Plan allows you to authorize automatic monthly payments from your bank account or credit card. Each fall and spring semester, Nelnet automatically deducts equal tuition payments (covering tuition and fees only) from your checking or savings account, or charges them to your MasterCard, VISA, or Discover card.

Nelnet charges a $25 non-refundable fee per semester to participate. Nelnet is not a loan program. No debt is incurred, there is no credit search, and no interest or finance charges are assessed by Nelnet on the unpaid balance.

To authorize automatic payment through Nelnet:

• Log in to SOAR using your J# and pin.
• Click the "Student" tab
• Click "Student Account"
• Enroll in a "Payment Plan"
