Registration, Payments & Refunds
Late Registration Fees and Payment Policy
Upon registration payment is due within seven calendar days of your registration OR the first day of the quarter, whichever comes first.
If you register on or after the first day of the quarter, course fees are due immediately. If you are dropped from classes for non-payment you will be charged an additional fee (on a space available basis).
Late registration for classes will require a Blue Card during second week of the class. Payment for classes with the Blue Card must be made immediately or students will be dropped the next day for non-payment. Beginning Students registering during the third week of classes will be required to obtain a Red Card. Each card has a specific fee related to late registration; payment must be made immediately or student will be dropped for non-payment.
