Panther Payment Plan

Overview

Pay your tuition & fees in convenient monthly installments using Florida Tech's Panther Payment Plan. The Panther Payment Plan is designed to help students and their families effectively budget their out-of-pocket expenses each semester. Plans are available for both undergraduate and graduate level students. Each Panther Payment Plan is for the current semester only and re-enrollment is necessary for each subsequent semester.

Fast - The Panther Payment Plan is entirely web-based.  Enrollment is quick & easy using PAWS.

Secure - Our online payments use industry-leading security features.

Convenient - For Fall & Spring semesters, plans offer 4 monthly payments. For Summer, the plan offers 3 monthly payments.

  • Your plan will automatically recalculate your monthly installments nightly when additional charges or payments post to your student account (charges/payments posted to your student account after 5 PM will not be recalculated until after 5 PM on the next business day). 
  • Online through PAWS - anywhere you have Internet access, anytime.
  • Add authorized users to your student account: parents, family, friends, or anyone financially contributing to your education. 

Inexpensive - The Panther Payment Plan is an inexpensive, interest-free payment alternative. Avoid finance charges by enrolling prior to the beginning of the semester & by making payments on time. Enrollment only costs $30.00 per semester, with an optional down payment. Online payments using credit cards are subject to the 2.25% service fee.
