When a coupon code equals the total transaction amount, you don’t need to enter additional payment information.

When a coupon code is more than the total transaction amount, you don’t need to enter additional payment information. However, you'll forfeit the remaining balance offered by the coupon code, as BU College of Fine Arts will not issue credits or carry remaining balances forward.
