·TUITION
PAYMENT·
TUITION PAYMENT OPTIONS
Tuition payment
is due for all programs of training prior to the student’s
start date. For students enrolled in a full-time program of
training where payment cannot be made prior to the first day
of class, arrangements for a payment schedule or financial aid
assistance must be made with the Financial Aid Office prior to
starting a program of training.
APPLYING FOR
FINANCIAL AID:
if a student is applying for
Financial Aid to assist with tuition costs, the student must
complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA/Pell
Grant application) and meet with the Financial Aid Office
before the student’s first day of class (we recommend
completing this process at least 2-3 weeks prior to the
student’s first day of class, if possible). Note: if the
Financial Aid process is not complete prior to the first day
of class, the student is required to pay a $100 deposit
towards tuition before being admitted to class. The
deposit will be processed for a refund with the student’s
first Financial Aid distribution contingent upon Financial Aid
approval and completion of all paperwork with the Financial
Aid Office.
MONTHLY
TUITION PAYMENTS (Full-time programs only)
Students who do not receive financial
aid, in addition to students who do not have sufficient
financial aid funds to cover tuition and students who cannot
pay the tuition in full before the first day of class, must
make payment arrangements in advance. The student must
complete and sign a tuition payment agreement with the
Financial Aid Office BEFORE the student starts his or
her program of training (we recommend payment arrangements be
made at least 2-3 weeks prior to the student’s first day of
class, if possible). By signing the tuition payment
agreement, the student agrees to pay the equivalent of each
month’s tuition (amount varies by program) by the given dates
and must be paid in full prior to the student continuing on to
the next month. The student is allowed a grace period to make
this payment; however, if the payment is not made by the grace
period deadline, the student will not be permitted to continue
in class until payment is made. Final payment of all tuition
must be made 2 weeks prior to program completion.
TUITION
PAYMENT – SHORT TERM PROGRAMS
Any program of training of 599 clock
hours and less are considered short-term programs. Tuition
for such programs is due at the time of registration or
on/before the student’s first day of scheduled class.
Payments cannot be made on short-term programs (Financial Aid
is NOT available for short-term programs).
MONTHLY
INVOICES
Students
are invoiced monthly; however,
the student is responsible for tuition payments regardless of
whether an invoice is received. Note: Payment plans are set
up for the benefit of the student; therefore, it is the
student’s responsibility to make the required payments by the
given deadlines. The first month of tuition is due on or
before the student’s first day of class.
PREVIOUS
BALANCE
If a student owes
a tuition balance from a previous program of training, the
student will not be permitted to return for additional
training until the balance has been paid in full.
OTHER PAYMENT OPTIONS
CASH
/ MONEY ORDERS / CERTIFIED CHECKS
are all
acceptable methods of payment.
PERSONAL CHECKS
Personal checks
are accepted; however, a returned check fee will be charged
for any personal check that is returned to the school from the
bank for insufficient funds, etc. The applicable fee is the
amount charged to the school from the bank (@$21.50).
MASTER CARD / VISA / CHECK CARDS
Tuition payment
can be made with MasterCard and Visa credit cards; as well as
VISA check cards.
