Tuition Schedule

Tuition is due at time of registration each quarter. Registration closes after the second Saturday of a new quarter. There is no registration for classes during the third week or later. Individual payment plans with a maximum of three payments per quarter may be arranged to accommodate the student's financial needs, if prior quarter's payment plans were paid in a timely manner. Students waiting for financial aid approval must follow the tuition policy explained above. Students, who do not make scheduled payments, will not be given credit for a quarter not fully paid for and will not be allowed to re-enroll in the next quarter until past due payments are paid. All money received is applied first to past due balances.
