For some courses special fees may be required to cover supplies, materials, equipment, instruction or facilities. Courses requiring these fees are listed in the credit course schedule published prior to each term.
To cover the cost of liability insurance, laboratory fees are charged for all clinical courses in the Allied Health curriculum.
Fees may be adjusted when courses or programs are offered in cooperation with other community agencies and when courses have higher than normal costs due to the use of special facilities, equipment and/or personnel. In certain courses, fees are charged to cover all direct expenses.
Payments of Fees by Check
Do not stop payment on your check even if you drop your course(s). If you stop payment on your check or you do not have sufficient funds to cover your check, you will be charged a $25 fee. The College will also assess a $25 fee for checks returned because an account is closed or because a check was improperly endorsed.
Checks returned for insufficient funds will be referred to the State Attorney's Office for collection.
If you pay your student bill with a check written in excess of the amount due and/or with a check drawn on a foreign or out-of-state bank, the check will be processed as authorized by the Vice President for Admin./Chief Financial Officer. First, the college will deposit your check. When your check has cleared, a credit balance will be created on your student account. Once the schedule adjustment period has ended and your bill for the semester is fixed, the College will refund to you any credit balance remaining on your student account.
Credit Card Payments
Students may pay their tuition and fees and purchase books and materials using MasterCard or VISA.
