College of Western Idaho (CWI) students who are unable to satisfy their account balance in full may request a payment plan. A payment plan will allow you to make interest-free, monthly payments toward your tuition and fee charges.

Request a Payment Plan

Prior to setting up a payment plan, you must be registered for classes. Payment options, fees, and disclosures will be presented to you when you set up your payment plan. 

  • As a payment plan is a contractual agreement with CWI, you are expected to comply with payment due dates.
  • A non-refundable application fee of $30 to $50 per semester will be charged to participate. Other fees may apply.
  • Payments toward your payment plan will be made to CWI. 
  • Payment plans do not have interest (0% APR).
