Ways to Help You Pay for College - Flex Pay Programs Print E-mail

You must pay for your classes in full, or make payment arrangements through Flex Pay when you register.


Your class registration is not complete until you have paid in full or enrolled in Flex Pay.   If the payment portion of registration is not complete, your class registration will be canceled and you will need to re-register at a later date.

Before you begin, you will need to have the following information to sign-up for Flex Pay. You will be dropped from classes if you do not enter the credit card or banking information.

  • LMC student ID (eight digits) and Password (mmddyy, unless you have already changed it)
  • Credit Card information: (Visa not accepted)

                            OR

  • Banking information: bank name, address, checking or savings account number and routing number.

Your two payment options are:
1. Paying in full with:
  • Cash
  • Personal check or money order made payable to Lake Michigan College
  • MasterCard, Visa, Discover Card, American Express, or Diner’s Club Card
  • Third-party payment
  • Funds held by LMC in an international student deposit account
2. Enrolling in one of the Flex Pay plans.
  • If you don’t pay in full at the time of class registration, or if you receive financial aid, you must sign up for Flex Pay offered at LMC.
  • Flex Pay is a low-cost way to spread your tuition and fee payments out over time with automatic payments coming from your checking account or credit card. Flex Pay is not a loan program, so you won’t have interest or finance charges, and there is no credit check.
  • Flex Pay sign-up deadlines and required down payments are listed in the most current class schedule and online.

How to Enroll in Flex Pay - Here's how it works.

If you wish to use Flex Pay, you must re-enroll each semester at the time of registration. Select the e-Cashier link. Please have the following information available:
 1. LMC student ID number
 2. Name, address and email of person responsible for making payments
 3. Account information for the person responsible for payment

Your monthly payments can be made in one of two ways:

  • Automatic Bank Payment from Checking or Savings (ACH)
    ACH payments are simply a bank-to-bank transfer of money from your checking or savings account that you have pre-approved for your expenses at Lake Michigan College. Payments are processed on the 5th of each month and will continue until the balance is paid in full.
  • Credit Card Option
    Paying with your credit card allows you to take advantage of any bonus programs your credit card company may offer. With this option, your monthly payment, along with a convenience fee, will be automatically charged to your credit card. The convenience fee is in addition to the nonrefundable Flex Pay enrollment fee. Payments are processed on the 5th of each month and will continue until the balance is paid in full.


NOTE: Students who have previously defaulted on the Flex Pay/FACTS/e-Cashier program are not eligible to participate.

NOTE: It can take 3 – 4 weeks after you submit the FAFSA until the time you receive your estimated financial aid award package. If you anticipate receiving financial aid, and want to utilize Flex Pay – Pending Aid, you must wait until you receive your estimated financial aid award package to register for classes.

Enroll Now! To sign up, visit the Fact's e-Cashier Web site.
