TUITION PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Payment Policy Overview
Tuition must be paid in full before the start of class unless the student has an approved payment arrangement on file with the Registrar’s Office. A signed tuition agreement is required for all students.
Failure to meet financial obligations may delay academic progress, prevent class attendance, or restrict graduation eligibility.
Tuition payments are always made ahead of the program’s start date and are governed by the school’s non-refundable policy:
Paid tuition is non-refundable after three (3) class sessions or if a student has two (2) unexcused absences without communication, in accordance with the Attendance Policy.
Partial refunds may be granted only at the discretion of the Dean of Students. The application and administrative/technology fees are non-refundable.
