Visit the Tuition Management Systems website at www.afford.com for more information.  Tuition Management Systems offers Interest-Free Monthly Payment Options which allows you to maximize your savings and income and reduce loan need by spreading your education expenses over several interest-free monthly payments instead of making one large, lump sum payment. Automatic Payment Option allows you to avoid check writing, postage and the possibility of late payment penalties due to mailing delays.
