Is the school desperate for money or are they just greedy? Why do they close students’ IDs and deactivates their accounts the second they miss the deadline or on the day of the deadline? They have a record of who has paid and who has not, so why the urgency in making students pay? It is not like the students can graduate without paying completely.
There are some who do pay through the outside payment options given by the school, but they still get their accounts deactivated because finance does not even check it until after they are corrected.
Most students do installments because they never have enough money to pay completely, and there are those who pay partially because they still do not have the money to even pay a complete installment. For a school who is known to be very generous with giving scholarships, they seem to be really need the money.
