Make a Payment

Enterprise

Enterprise is an online automatic payment option for CMU students. It is not a loan program, there is no interest or finance charges, and it does not require a credit check.

Enterprise is easy to use! Enroll through a student’s myCMU account.

  • Login to myCMU
  • Select "Billing and Payments" on the "Student" Tab
  • Select Sign Up for a Payment Plan

Payments are processed on the fifth of the month, if the fifth falls on a holiday or weekend, the payment will be processed on the following business day. All full and down payments are processed immediately!

A payment plan enrollment fee of $55 or $30 does apply, depending upon the number of payments. (3-6 payments - $55 fee; 1-2 payments - $30 fee). The enrollment fee is automatically deducted from the account within 14 days from the day the agreement is submitted. Some payment plan options require a down payment percentage depending upon payment plan enrollment date; please click here for a list of available payment plan options.
