TUITION POLICY

Tuition is determined annually based on the operational cost of each program and on state reimbursements and guidelines.

A $100.00 non-refundable registration fee is due at the time of enrollment for all students in all programs of study.

The program of study consists of a full program year divided into two (2) payment periods.  Each payment period is equal to 50% of the scheduled program year.  Full tuition payment for each payment period is due by or before two weeks prior to the first day of class for that payment period.. If desired, students may prepay for the entire school year prior to the beginning of the fall term.  Tuition is adjusted accordingly for half-time and advanced placement students.

Students with delinquent accounts over 10 days are subject to suspension from school until the account is paid. For any current or former student, if an account remains delinquent, the school reserves the right to withhold services along with the diploma, transcript of grades or other records of achievement.  Any delinquent accounts (unpaid balances) are subject to the collection procedures established by school policy.

Financial assistance is accepted for tuition payment upon receipt of appropriate written notification of such approval. This must be submitted to the school according the payment schedule. A minimum of 6-8 weeks processing time is needed for most types of financial aid.  Refer to information on Financial Aid.  You may call the Financial Aid office for more information at 505-1257.

Refunds

Tuition refunds are based on payment period costs and are calculated on a prorata basis.  One hundred percent (100%) of tuition will be refunded if a student withdraws prior to the first day of class. After classes begin, tuition refunds will be prorata. Tuition amount is rounded up to the nearest 10 percent of completed hours. After greater than 60 percent of the payment period  is completed, no refund is given.  Textbook payments are not subject to the prorata refund policy.

The student should officially terminate or withdraw from the program in writing.  Upon completion of the withdrawal/termination form, any refund due will be calculated according to the last date of attendance.

Note:  Students who withdraw before program completion may owe tuition or book costs based on the difference between federal aid required to be returned and the school's refund policy.

Refund Distribution

All refunds will be made within thirty (30) days of withdrawal or termination. If a refund is due a student under the institution's refund policy and the student has received any Title IV aid as a part of the student's aid package, the refund will be distributed in a specified order of priority.

Refunds will be first made to the lender of a Title IV Loan to reduce the loan principal. Second, (if applicable) the refund will be applied to reduce any Title IV grant amounts received. Third (if applicable) the refund will be made to the sponsoring agency, student or parent.

All information on Program Costs and Refund Policies are made available to all applicants and distributed prior to day one (1) of enrollment.

Return of Title IV Funds

When a student who receives Title IV financial aid (Pell Grant, Federal Subsidized and Unsubsidized Stafford Loans, and Parent PLUS Loans) withdraws, either officially or unofficially, before completing the payment period for which they are charged, a return of Title IV funds may be required.
bulletFirst, the net amount of Title IV aid that was and could have been disbursed is calculated.
bulletSecond, a calculation must be performed to determine the percentage of Title IV aid earned.  The number of hours attended by the student is divided by the number of hours in the payment period.  This equals the percentage of Title IV aid earned.  If the percentage of Title IV aid earned is greater than 60 percent, the student is eligible for 100 percent of the aid.
bulletThird, if the amount of aid disbursed equals the amount of aid earned, no further calculation is required.
bulletFourth, if the amount of aid disbursed is greater than the amount of aid earned, the difference must be returned to the appropriate Title IV agencies.
bulletThe school will return Title IV monies as follows:  Unsubsidized Stafford Loan, Subsidized Stafford Loan, Parent PLUS Loan, Pell Grant.

The student's account will be debited for all monies returned to the Title IV agencies.  The student will be responsible for paying any outstanding balance due to the Business Office.  Questions regarding the Return of Title IV Funds should be directed to the Financial Aid office, 505-1257.
