Charges, fees and deposits are due and payable for the fall semester on August 2 and for the spring semester on January 3. In no case will a student be permitted to register for any semester if he/she has unpaid charges from the prior semester.
Students are not officially registered until tuition, room and board and all other required fees are paid in full. The College reserves the right to withdraw a student from classes and dismiss him/her if the account balance is not paid in full by the payment due date. The Director of Financial Services and Assistant Director of Financial Services may grant a student an extension for payment of 21 days beyond the semester due date for good cause. However, in such cases the student will be charged a $35 late fee. The Director of Financial Services and Assistant Director of Financial Services may waive this initial late fee for transfer students who are accepted within a three-week period prior to the first day of classes and for students who have been awarded state grants, outside scholarships and loans for which the Financial Aid Office has received written notification from the funding body but has not yet received the funds. Charges other than tuition and room and board that are assessed during the semester, such as security fines, library fines, and computer repairs, etc. are due and payable within 10 days of initial assessment.
Late payment fees of $35 per month will be charged for any unpaid balance in a student’s account at the time that monthly bills are prepared. In no case will a student receive grades, transcripts or diplomas during any period in which he/she has any unpaid student account balance.
A fee of $25.00 will be charged to the issuer of any check returned by the payee’s bank, and a fee of $5.00 will be charged for returned electronic check (e-check) payments.
All outstanding debts to the College remaining unpaid after 30 days from billing may be subject to all legal collection costs, fees and practices.
