Make a Payment
There are several ways to satisfy an outstanding balance on a student account:
PAY ONLINE
Students have the ability to submit payments online through the Nelnet system in Workday. To access this option, students should log in to the Workday system, select the Finances tab, then click on the NelNet link.
On this page, students will have the option of making a payment in full, making a partial payment to pay down the balance, setting up a payment plan, or requesting a refund. The option to request a refund will only appear if a refund exists.
PAY IN PERSON
Students can visit the Red Desk in the Office of Student Financial Services, located in Lentz Hall Room 403, and make a payment by cash or check.
MAIL IN YOUR PAYMENT
Payments should be addressed to The Office of Student Financial Services, 2001 Alford Park Drive, Kenosha, WI. It is important that the student’s name and ID number accompany the check.
PAY BY PAYMENT PLAN
Students can make payments to Carthage College through a payment plan through their Nelnet account. Available payment plans are flexible to suit different family needs and can be found on NelNet in the Workday portal.
To set up a payment plan in Workday, select the Finances tab, then click on the NelNet link. From this page, students can select “Payment Plan,” which will connect students to their bill and the ability to create their payment plan. Students who are setting up their payment plan for the first time will need to register first before creating their payment plan.
Credit Balance Request
A credit balance results when the total credits posted to a student’s account exceed the total charges applied to the account for a specific term or semester. Students may choose to apply their credit balance to a subsequent term or receive a refund. Carthage College is required to obtain permission to hold any such credit balance to be applied to a subsequent term or semester. In the case of a PLUS loan, the refund will go to the parent unless otherwise specified on the PLUS application.
To initiate a refund request, students should log into their Nelnet account in the Workday system, select the “Finances” tab, then click on the NelNet link. For refunds, students should follow the instructions in the Nelnet system on the lower left-hand corner of the page. Credit balances appear as a negative number on the Nelnet homepage.
