If you’re a credit student at AACC and your account is in good standing, you may pay your tuition using our interest-free tuition payment plan.

The amount you pay down and number of payments you make is determined by your registration date and can vary from term to term. Depending on when you register, partial or full payment may be due. See the appropriate table below to learn which schedule applies to you.

To enroll in the payment plan, go to MyAACC > Self Services > Student Finance > Make a Payment

There is no payment plan by which AACC takes your payments automatically.

All prior terms must be paid in full before payment will be accepted on future terms. Payments received after the scheduled due date are subject to a $10 late payment fine.

Cost of Attendance

Tuition and fees are just one part of the overall cost of attending AACC. The Cost Of Attendance (COA) is an estimate of what it costs a student to attend college. The COA allows for other expenses related to attending AACC to be included in your decision to attend college. COA is also used to create your financial aid offer.

2023-2024 Student Expense Budgets

Cost of Attendance reflects an average cost for a student attending AACC full time (12 credits per term) for the nine-month academic school year. Additional costs may be incurred for students in some allied health programs.

Cost of Attendance Adjusted for the Documented Purchase of a Computer

The maximum adjustment toward the purchase of a computer is $850. This adjustment can be made once each academic school year. To have your Cost of Attendance adjusted:

  • Make sure you completed the Free Application of Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) for the year you are requesting the adjustment, and AACC has your information.
  • Be enrolled for at least half-time (6 or more eligible credit hours).
  • Complete a Cost of Attendance Increase Form available at the AACC financial aid office.
  • Provide the receipt of the computer you purchased or a dated printout showing the total cost of the computer you are planning to purchase.

This adjustment does not guarantee more financial aid money to be offered, but it adjusts the overall cost of attendance used to determine financial need for the academic school year.


Noncredit Payment Plan

A few noncredit, continuing education courses are eligible for an outsourced payment plan.
