Tuition and Fee Charges
Payment of Fees
Financial obligations for delinquent loans, veteran’s deferments, Direct Loan deferments, returned checks, and student financial aid over awards must be repaid before students can register.
All fees on a class schedule must be paid in full by the fee payment date or enrollment in every course on the schedule will be canceled. Payment may be made by cash, check, American Express, Discover, VISA, MasterCard, or approved financial aid. If a change in the student’s enrollment status results in loss of anticipated financial aid, the obligation for payment of fees remains the student’s responsibility.
