The tuition and fees listed above are guaranteed for 24 months when you begin the program. If you continue with your cohort, the rates will remain the same for four semesters. If you withdraw and are readmitted or require more than 4 semesters to finish, you will pay the rates for the cohort with which you are enrolled.
Other Financial Information and Policies
Policies. The following is available in the ACHIEVE Program Office:
-
A refund policy for dropping a course and/or not completing a semester.
-
A policy on what academic progress a student must maintain to qualify for financial aid assistance.
-
An appeals process if a student feels he/she has been unduly denied financial aid, or if the student can provide a legitimate reason for not achieving Satisfactory Academic Progress.
Parking. A $13 parking fee is assessed for each term.
Change of Cohort. A $200 fee is assessed for a change of cohort.
Program Reinstatement. A $200 fee is assessed for reinstatement into the program.
Credit By Demonstrated Competency. The College assesses a $40 Portfolio Evaluation Fee for each credit hour by Demonstrated Competency (CDC) for which the student applies and a $25 fee for every hour of credit the College accepts.
For example, if a student applies for 10 credits and the College accepts 7 credits, the College charges the student $575 ($40 x 10 credits = $400) plus ($25 x 7= $175). A faculty member in the appropriate field of study evaluates a student's work to determine acceptable credit. CDC is limited to not more than 30 units of credit.
