In order to submit payment for a DEDP course, you must enroll in the DEDP program on your MicroMasters Portal Dashboard and calculate your Personalized Price. Once you are ready to submit payment, navigate to your Portal Dashboard. If you have never enrolled in the course before, you must do so before you can submit payment. Click the blue "Enroll" button next to your course of choice and select "Pay Now". If you have previously enrolled in the course, you may simply click the blue "Pay Now" button which replaced the "Enroll" button on your Dashboard. Follow the prompts to complete your payment.
The DEDP program accepts globally recognized major credit or debit cards that have a Visa, MasterCard, Discover, or American Express logo. We also accept payment via Paypal. We are unable to accept payment via invoice for individual participants and we are not able to offer payment or installment plans. All participants will receive a payment receipt via email.
What If the Pay Now Button is Not Available?
If the "Pay Now" button is greyed out and you cannot click it, this means that you do not currently have an approved Personal Course Price. You are still welcome to enroll in the course—you can click the "Audit now and pay later" button, instead, but you must complete the Personal Price Calculation process before you will be able to submit payment. If you have not yet started the process, please visit the FAQ article How do I create a profile to access my personalized DEDP course pricing? for instructions.
What Happens When I Submit Payment For a Course?
Once you submit payment for a DEDP course you will receive one attempt at that course's Proctored Exam. You may take the online course as many times as you wish, during any future semester in which the course is available without paying again. You will only be required to submit payment for the course again if you require additional attempts at the Proctored Exam.
You are more than welcome to submit payment of the course fee for one or more DEDP courses now and take those courses and Proctored Exams in one or more future semesters. If you wish, you may unenroll from the course after submitting payment—although you are not required to do so, and are free to remain enrolled and get a head-start on learning the content, even if you do not plan to submit assignments. Your MicroMasters Dashboard will save only the highest score you earn in each DEDP course.
