Tuition Policy:
Students dropping individual courses or withdrawing from enrollment up to the last date to officially drop courses will receive a 100% refund of tuition and fees (except application fee). Students who officially withdraw from a course or courses by the Last Day to Officially Withdraw will be liable for their unpaid balance, if any.
After the ADD/DROP date, the student will be held liable for all tuition and fees. Failure to pay the amount owed may prevent future attendance at the College. Students who have a billing statement hold should seek assistance from the Accounts Receivable Clerk, and those who have financial aid holds should talk to the Financial Aid Director.
Students who drop and/or withdraw from the College, and who have received a Pell grant, may also jeopardize future attendance if the College has to reimburse the Department of Education for all or part of the Pell award. This amount then becomes the student responsibility to pay back to the school.
