Florida Tech offers the Panther Payment Plan for payment of a semester's tuition & fees. Enrolling in the plan prior to the start of each semester will allow you to pay your tuition & fees in as many as four (4) monthly payments in fall or spring & three (3) in summer. You can enroll in the Panther Payment Plan by going to the Current Students Launchpad, clicking on the PAWS link, and enrolling through your PAWS account. View further instructions on how to find and enroll in the Panther Payment Plan.

When a student's financial aid disbursements overpay the student's tuition & fees, it creates a credit balance. For information on refunds, please see Account Refunds.

Billing statements are generated on the first of every month. You should expect to receive an email notification that your billing statement has been posted online within the first week of each month. You can access your billing statement by going to the Current Students Launchpad and logging in through the PAWS link. For more information on e-billing, please follow this link: Student Billing.  Others who pay to your account can be made authorized users in your PAWS account.  Follow these instructions to add an authorized user. Authorized users receive the same email notification of billing and can review limited financial information on your account.

Note: If your tuition has been deferred, you are waiting on financial aid disbursement, or you are enrolled in a payment plan, you will continue to receive an e-billing statement until payment-in-full has been received by Florida Tech.

Holds are placed on a student account for both academic and financial reasons. Financial holds generally result from money being owed to the University. Holds can be reviewed by logging in to PAWS, clicking on the Student Academics Tab, and scrolling down to click on View Holds under Student Information. When you review your holds, a brief description is usually available along with a telephone extension of the person who placed the hold. If the description is unclear, or you want more detail about the cause of the hold, phone the extension to speak with a staff member.  If you are calling long distance or off campus, Student Financial Services' extensions are preceded by area code (321) and prefix 674, then the extension number.
