    The CJC is able to submit monthly payments toward your loan. Your loan provider needs to be a registered vendor with the State of Delaware's Division of Accounting First State Financial System in order to provide payments. Please contact cjc_tuition@delaware.gov to verify if your loan provider is a registered  vendor with the State of Delaware. 

    Maybe. It unfortunately depends on your loan servicer.

     You’ll need to contact them directly—some are flexible!

     Let me know if your servicer is willing to work with you to split lump payments (I’ll start a list)
