Tuition and fees are determined prior to the fall trimester and maintained throughout the academic year (September through August). New Students will be charged the latest Tuition rate. Tuition rates are evaluated annually and adjusted as necessary.
The College operates on a basis of three trimesters per year. Each term is measured as 15 weeks. Tuition and fees must be paid no later than the day before the first day of classes of the trimester. If the first day of classes is a Monday, then the due date will be the Friday before. If a student anticipates a problem with making a full payment by the due date, then a payment deferment or arrangements needs to be requested prior to the first day of class. If arrangements are not made with the Business Office for payment of tuition and fees by the end of the day before the first day of classes of the trimester, the student’s enrollment is subject to cancellation and their account is subject to the late payment fees. A signed financial aid award letter is considered an appropriate arrangement for payment of tuition and fees as long as the financial aid, not including Federal Work Study, is more than the tuition and fees. Tuition and fees become due when aid is received, regardless of its source.
Tuition and fees are assessed when a student registers. Student statements, fees and balances are available online through the student portal. Students may also request a printed statement from the Business Office. Tuition is subject to the refund policy. Student equipment fees are mandatory and nonrefundable.
Once a student registers, if the student decides that s/he will not be attending for the trimester, the student must provide a withdrawal form to the Registrar. A registered student who has not officially withdrawn is liable for trimester charges.
In addition to tuition and fees listed below, students are responsible for the purchase of all texts, instruments, and materials required for all courses.
