Depending on when you withdraw from a course, you may be eligible for a full or partial refund for that course.  Fees are only refunded if the course is withdrawn from within the first two weeks in the fall and spring or first day in the summer. Below is our tuition refund schedule.

Within the first 6 contact hours of the course               100%
Within the first 9 contact hours of the course                  80%
Within the first 12 contact hours of the course                50%
Beyond the first 12 contact hours of the course               0%

All current semester payments, tuition, and fee charges will be cancelled for students who must withdraw for military service (see “Military Service” under Academic Policies). Different policies may apply to payments received from state and federal sources, as per applicable regulation.

Your bill is viewable through your PTS student portal under Financial>Billing.

Payments can be made in several different ways. The most convenient way to make a payment is through your student portal under Financial>Transact Billing and Payments. E-check and all major credit cards are accepted. You can also mail a check to the following address:

Phillips Theological Seminary
Attn: Bursar
901 North Mingo Road
Tulsa, OK 74116

Cash payments can also be made in person in the Business Office.

Payment plans are set up through the student portal under Financial>Transact Billing and Payments once the add/drop period ends. Payment plans are available for the fall and spring semesters and are designed to allow your account to be paid in full by the end of the current term. You may only have one active payment plan at a time.

Yes. Within your student portal under Financial>Transact Billing and Payments, you can invite others to be a payer on your account.

After the add/drop period ends, disbursement occurs. During this time, all charges and financial aid are finalized on your account. If you have more payments, credits, or financial aid on your account than the amount of your tuition and fees, the remaining credit balance will be refund to you via direct deposit.  Your direct deposit can be set up through your student portal under Financial>Transact Billing and Payments>My account.

If a payment plan is not set up for your account, payment is due in full by the end of the drop/add period. If your account still has an outstanding balance and no payment plan is in place before the add/drop period for the next semester, a hold will be placed on your account. This hold prevents registering for future classes, receiving a copy of your transcript, and receiving your diploma until your account is paid in full.

At the close of each semester, all accounts are evaluated and any accounts that do not have a payment plan in place and have an outstanding balance from a previous semester are sent to collections and an additional fee is added to the balance due.
