Payment by Authorized Payer
Parents (grandparents, guardians, sponsors, etc.) can be set up by the student as an 'Authorized Payer'. As an authorized payer the parent will have access to the students account balance and the ability to make a payment online (authorized payers do NOT have access to grades, class schedules, transcripts, etc.). Authorized Payers can also make a payment over the phone by calling the Student Accounts Office at 515-964-6446.

Payment by FACTS payment plan
Parents can help students set up payment plans to spread the cost of tuition and fees out over the semester. Payment plans can be set up online by the student through myDMACC or through an Authorized Payer account. If payments are withdrawn from a parent or sponsors checking, savings, or credit account the account holder must be designated the 'Responsible Party' when setting up the plan. All payment plans are automatic; once the plan is activated, the withdrawals will be scheduled for the 5th of every month throughout the term.
