Tuition Payment Policy

Spring Term 2012 payment deadlines

Students who have registered for classes but have not met one of the tuition deferral options (see below) for the payment of their tuition and fees by December 12, 2011 may have their registration canceled.

Students registering for classes after December 12 must make payment arrangements on the same day they register. Students who do not make arrangements by that deadline may have their registration cancelled. 

If you decide not to attend, please do not rely on the "registration cancellation for non-payment" process as a way to drop your classes.

Tuition deferral options

Students can arrange for the payment of their tuition and fees in any one of the following easy ways:

• Sign up for an automatic payment plan, NBS e-Cashier (Nelnet).
• Make a down-payment of $300 or 15 percent of the total amount owed (whichever is less), or
• The Business Office will defer your tuition/fees if Century College has received your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
• Submit a Third Party Billing Authorization to the Business Office, or
• Submit a verification of an outside scholarship to cover tuition and fees to the Business Office.

Please Note: PSEO students must submit forms to the Business Office.

Spring Term 2012 final payment deadline

Full payment of all tuition and fees must be made by February 8, 2012. Students who do not pay their tuition and fees in full by the February 8th deadline will be assessed a monthly late fee of $25, as well as a single administrative fee of $30 for placing the student on the college payment plan. Students with outstanding account balances after the February 8th deadline will have a hold placed on their record and will be unable to register for future courses or obtain an official transcript until their account balance is paid in full.

Non-attendance

NOTE: If students decide not to attend their classes, it is their responsibility to drop them. Students are responsible for the payment of tuition and fees for all courses not dropped during the first 5 business days of the session, regardless of whether or not the student chooses to attend the class.

If you decide not to attend, please do not rely on the "registration cancellation for non-payment" process as a way to drop your classes.

Students who do not plan on attending registered classes must drop on the internet at the Century Registration page or complete a drop form in person at the Records Office prior to the 5th day of the semester. Century College does not drop students for non-attendance. Therefore, DO NOT rely on the college to drop you from your courses.

After the 5th day of the semester (January 13, 2012) all registered students are financially committed for tuition and fees. All classes at Century College have a limited number of seats available. Your registration reserves a seat in each of your classes, and prevents another student from registering should a class be full.

• In requesting this reservation, you have incurred a tuition obligation.
• No invoices or tuition statements are sent out. View your fee statement online at Pay for College and pay for tuition.
• Students are required to pay tuition and fees unless they drop classes prior to the 5th day of the semester in person at the Records Office or on the internet at the Century Registration page.
