Payment Plans

CCSM offers monthly and trimester payment plans for students. Typically payments for these plans are $750 and $3000 respectively. Each student’s plan is individually created for them based on their down payment and transfer credits. These payment plans are offered with 0% interest financing.

Crowdfunding

Sharing your journey with family, friends, and colleagues can be a great way to help raise funds for your education. There are so many amazing options available including:

• Bonfire
• Fundly
• Go Fund Me

We encourage you to set up your own page on one, or more, of these sites.

Personal Loans

Students may seek personal loans from a bank or local credit union. If students need any documentation of acceptance or enrollment to help in their application process, we are happy to provide them.

At this time we do not participate in federal financial aid programs.
