AUDIT OF COURSES

Students taking credit courses for no grade will pay the same enrollment fees and tuition as regular credit students.

NONCREDIT OFFERINGS

The fees for noncredit courses, community services offerings, workshops and seminars will be assessed on the basis of individual program costs. Students enrolled in noncredit offerings cannot switch to another course or noncredit offering with a transfer of fees. Students must drop the noncredit offering and enroll in the new course or noncredit offering and make fee payment.

PAYMENT OF TUITION AND FEES

To remain in good financial standing with the college and thereby continue to participate in its educational programs, services and benefits, a student must meet all financial obligations incurred at the college. Enrollment and attendance in classes financially obligates the student for full payment of the fees as shown on his/her fee statement.

Tuition and fees are paid at the Business Office located in Tanner Hall. Students may pay their fees with cash, personal check, money order, cashiers check, VISA or Mastercard.  As a alternative method of payment you may also pay by FACTS Tuition Payment Plan.  An interest-free monthly payment plan to help students meet their educational expenses. Click FACTS Tuition Payment Management for more information.

Those who have not paid their accounts prior to the fee payment deadline (as published in each class schedule) may be subject to the following : being Administratively Withdrawn from their classes, having their transcript/diploma held, receiving a late payment penalty, and disallowed to pre-enroll for future semesters. A returned check to the college may result in cancellation of the student's enrollment for failure to pay a delinquent account.

Late enrollment financially obligates a student for the late enrollment fee as well as appropriate tuition and fee charges. A student who enrolls during the late enrollment period and subsequently drops/withdraws from the course(s) will be refunded according to the regular refund schedule.

Students who have been awarded scholarships must ensure that any additional fees or tuition over and above the amount of scholarship award are paid prior to the fee payment deadline. Students who have third party pay authorization (from the military, business/industry, employers) must ensure that the Office of Financial Aid has formal notification of this authorization from the third party payer before the fee payment deadline.
