To help you meet your education expenses, College of the Desert is pleased to offer Nelnet Business Solutions as a convenient budget plan. It is not a loan; therefore, you have no debt, no interest or finance charges are assessed, and there is no credit check. 

*     The cost to budget monthly payments is a $20 per semester nonrefundable enrollment fee. If you elect to use the full payment option, you must enroll online, and there is a $2 nonrefundable enrollment fee. Please remember, full payments are deducted immediately! The enrollment fee is automatically deducted from your account within 14 DAYS of your agreement being posted to the system.

 *     The tuition payment is automatically deducted on the 5th of each month from a checking or savings account. You may also have your payment charged to your credit/debit card. If you elect to use your credit card, only Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover Card may be used. Please note: Debit cards may be returned unpaid due to daily limit restrictions imposed by your bank.

*     If your payment on the 5th is not successful, it will be reattempted on the 20th of the month. Anytime a payment is returned, you will receive notification on how the returned payment will be handled. Your agreement will be processed until the balance owed is paid in full.

*     For each returned payment, you will be assessed a $25 returned payment fee. Please note, your financial institution may also assess you a fee.
