Husker Payment Plan

The Husker Payment Plan allows currently enrolled students to pay their fall and spring semester charges in monthly payments. If you want to take advantage of this interest-free payment plan, you must enroll each fall and spring term in your MyRED.

Husker Payment Plan Enrollment Period:

• Fall semester: August 25–September 12 
• Spring semester: January 25–February 12 

Your payment amounts are determined by the balance remaining on your account at the time of enrolling in the payment plan. If you are receiving financial aid and scholarships after your initial enrollment in the payment plan, your future payments may be smaller after the aid disburses.

How to Enroll in a Husker Payment Plan

1. Log in to MyRED. 
2. Select “Husker Payment Plan” from the "Student Accounts" tab.
3. This will direct you to the Nelnet University portal.
4. Create an account by providing your information.
5. Select "Set up a Payment Plan," choose the correct term and select "Begin." You can only set up a payment plan for one student at a time. Fill out your contact information and review every section to make sure it's accurate.
6. Choose the Payment Plan Option that's the best fit for you. You’ll be charged a one-time enrollment fee. Continue and enter your bank account or card information. If you pay with a credit card, you may incur an additional fee, which can be avoided by using a bank account.

Automatic Payment Information

• Automatic payments will be withdrawn from the account you linked to the Husker Payment Plan when opening your account. The first payment will be withdrawn on the date in which you open the account with the following payments typically withdrawing on the 12th of the next two months.
  • Payment methods include automatic payment via checking or savings using your bank routing and account numbers, or by inputting your credit or debit card information. (Bold) Additional fees apply when utilizing a credit or debit card.
• Nelnet assesses a nonrefundable $30 return payment fee if the payment fails due to either insufficient funds in the consumer's bank account or if the credit card that's being used for the scheduled payment is either invalid or the credit limit is exceeded.
• Should there be a pattern of failed return payment fees due to either insufficient funds or incorrect information, the university may terminate a student from enrolling in future payment plans.
