Payment Options and Due Dates

At the beginning of each Fall and Spring term the student must choose a payment option. If no option is chosen by the first day of the term, you will be assigned to the Simple Payment Option.

Payment options may be chosen by the student online (from Aug 15 to the first day of the term for Fall and from Dec 15 to the first day of the term for Spring) through WaveNet. Go to FINANCES and the Payment Plan link to choose the Two or Three Payment Plan option. It may take 24-48 hours for your student account to update after submitting your choice. Parents with guest access may also make the request by using the email set up on their guest access account to email: SeaverSA@pepperdine.edu. The request must include: which option Two or Three Payment Plan, student's name and University issued ID number.

Please note: The Two and Three Payment Options are not available for the Summer sessions.

Simple Payment Option: The entire amount for the semester is due on the first business day after the add/drop period. 

Two Payment Option: Tuition + room/board charges, less any aid, are divided into two payments. A $25 service charge, per term, will be applied to your account and is due with the first payment. This option is ONLY available for the Fall and Spring semesters. The first payment is due on the first business day after the add/drop period. The second payment is due 30 calendar days after the first due date.  

Three Payment Option : Tuition + room/board charges, less any aid, are divided into three payments. A $50 service charge, per term, will be applied to your account and is due with the first payment. This option is ONLY available for the Fall and Spring semesters. The first payment is due on the first business day after the add/drop period. The second payment is due 30 calendar days after the first due date and the third payment is due 30 calendar days after the second due date.  

For Summer Sessions, the payment due date is the first business day after the add/drop period for each session.  Please see your online Student Center or Guest Access Center for exact dates. Log into WaveNet, go to FINANCES, and the Charges Due link.

If your account had previously been with Account Resolution or Student Account Collections and is now paid off, you will not be eligible for a payment plan and will be required to pay for each future term prior to being allowed to register for that term. If using financial aid to pay for the term, all paperwork must be completed and received by Pepperdine's Financial Assistance Office and any loans must be guaranteed before we will be able to count that aid toward the courses you plan to enroll in.
