College Approved Payment Plan and Involuntary Withdrawal from Classes/Residence Halls

You must have a College approved plan to pay for College prior to starting your classes and or moving in. If you fail to do so and start classes the College will make three (3) attempts to contact you to finalize your plan. If you ignore these messages and/or fail to complete your financial aid package, submit a valid Certificate of Residence, set up a payment plan, secure scholarships/grants and/or pay your tuition statement, you may be involuntarily removed from your courses and/or residence hall. If you are dropped for non-payment, there is no guarantee you will get back into your original courses. Worse yet, you may still be responsible for a large balance and may have effected your ability to secure financial aid in the future. We are here to help you develop that plan, so don’t delay.

Options for payment may include:

Tuition liability will be based on the college refund policy of 50% liability for 2nd week.
