AIB will freeze a student's tuition as long as the student remains continuously enrolled full-time (12.0 quarter hours or more per term) in a degree program. Payments for tuition, housing, and fees are due on or before the first day of each term. Balances must be covered by some means of financial aid or other documented assistance by the first day of each term. If these items are not in place, the student will be required to personally pay the account balance in full OR to request a payment plan with a $30 service fee assessed and the first 1/3 of the balance due to be paid in order to begin attending classes. AIB accepts cash, checks, VISA, MasterCard, American Express and Discover.
