Tuition, Fees and Payment Information
Important Payment Information:
Effective October 5, 2010, Gordon College will no longer accept as a payment option the VISA credit card when paying online for tuition, fees, parking fines, housing application or any charges that are placed on your student account (see FAQ). In order to become PCI compliant in regards to credit card information, credit card payments are offered for your convenience using the TouchNet PayPath Payment Service through BANNER. The TouchNet PayPath Service accepts American Express, Discover and MasterCard. A non-refundable 2.75% (minimum $3.00) service fee is charged and retained by TouchNet for the use of this service. To make your payment online, log in to your BANNER web account. PayPath also provides the option to pay by Webcheck. You may still pay in person or by mail with cash, check or money order. Effective July 1, 2010, the Business Office will no longer be able to accept credit card information over the telephone.
VISA will still be accepted as a payment option in the Bookstore for purchases made and the Community Education Office for courses registered there.

Guaranteed Tuition Plan
In April 2006, the Board of Regents approved a Guaranteed Tuition Plan for all incoming freshmen of the University System of Georgia's 35 institutions. Basically, the program was intended to give students and parents more certainty in planning for college tuition costs by setting a fixed tuition rate for a specified period. Recently the Board of Regents discontinued the policy. Students who entered a USG institution from Summer 2006 through Spring 2009 will remain on the Guaranteed Tuition Plan. Students beginning after Spring 2009 will not be on the plan. Read more about the University System of Georgia's Guaranteed Tuition Plan at http://www.usg.edu/student_affairs/tuition/.
