(a)

Notwithstanding the requirement of Section 89301 that tuition, material, and service fees be collected by campus officials at the time of registration, the trustees, in consultation with student representatives, may authorize installment payments for the California State University fee established by the trustees pursuant to Section 89700 to cover the costs of services, facilities, or materials, and for nonresident tuition established pursuant to Section 89705. Installment payment schedules may be established in accordance with timetables as determined appropriate by the trustees, in consultation with student representatives.

(b)

The trustees, in consultation with student representatives, shall impose a fee in an amount necessary to cover the costs of administering a system of installment payments and may deposit that fee in the General Fund or in local trust accounts as authorized by Section 89721 and established for the purpose of covering those costs. The administrative costs shall include, but not be limited to, the cost of collecting delinquent and defaulted accounts.

(c)

The trustees shall include, in the fee imposed for administering the system of installment payments, the interest that the state would have earned in the Pooled Money Investment Account had the fee been collected at the time of registration. The portion of the administrative fee attributable to reimbursement for loss of interest earnings shall be deposited in the General Fund.

(d)

The trustees shall provide notice of the amount of the fee that is imposed upon students who use the installment payment system. That notice shall include information regarding the amount of the fee and shall be included in the billing statement sent to the student and posted on signs at the campus cashier window. The information regarding the fee may also be conveyed to the students in any other manner determined appropriate by the trustees.
