Drop for Non Payment

  • Students are responsible for paying their bills prior to the start of the term.
  • The District has implemented a Drop for Non-Payment policy, where students with a balance of $100 or more, will be dropped from future registered classes and a hold will be placed on their accounts.
  • Students will not be dropped if they are part of an exempt group or have setup a payment plan.
  • A list of Drop for Non Payment dates is on our Event Calendar under Financial Aid.
We don't want students to be burdened by finances, so we have developed options for them, including Payment Plans, Financial Aid and Scholarships. We encourage students to look into these options prior to the start of the term.
