All tuition and enrollment fees are due in full by the first day of the semester. If not, a payment plan outlining how the balance will be paid in full by the beginning of the 10th week must be signed by the first day of the semester, OR evidence that full payment will be made through Financial Aid or a waiver signed by the Chief Student Services Officer must be on file with Admissions & Records. A HOLD will be placed on the student’s account by the beginning of the 10th week of the semester if payment in full has not been received. Also, billing statements will be sent following a regular, monthly schedule.

All student housing fees are due according to the Payment Plan Option chosen by the student. A HOLD will be placed on the student’s account by the beginning of the 10th week of the semester for students who are not current with their housing payment. Please note that for housing fees paid on a monthly basis, payments received after the 5th of each month will result in a minimum of a $20 late fee, plus an additional $10 for every 5 additional calendar days that the payment is late. If payment has not been received by the 21st of the month, the student may be evicted. 

A HOLD on the student’s account prevents the student from enrolling in future semesters, obtaining official transcripts, and receiving their diploma until all balances owed to the College have been paid in full.
