Business Office



Business Office

The Business Office maintains the College’s accounting records, accepts tuition and fee payments, and disburses certain financial aid funds. During the fall and spring semesters, students may visit the Business Office between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. The Business Office operates under extended hours during certain registration periods, but closes on Fridays at 12:00 noon during the summer term.

Insurance

Accident insurance is available for students while in college. Students desiring this coverage may make payment during fall registration or at other times designated by the Business Office. This fee is not refundable. While insurance is optional, all students enrolled in courses with shops or labs are strongly encouraged to take advantage of this insurance. Currently, the cost of this optional policy is $6/year or $2.00/semester.

Nursing, Allied health, Cosmetology, and Esthetics Technology students must obtain liability insurance each academic year prior to participating in clinical activities. The coverage is obtained through the College and is the financial responsibility of the student. This fee is not refundable and is charged automatically to applicable courses by curriculum department heads. Currently, the cost of this insurance is $16.

Some of the clinical agencies that provide sites for courses required for Nursing students expect students to be covered by personal health insurance. Students assigned to those agencies are responsible for their own health insurance. Students are financially responsible for any medical treatment rendered for illness or injury while enrolled in the programs.

Graduation Fee

Each curriculum student is charged a graduation fee after applying for graduation. This fee covers the cost of the certificate, diploma, or degree. This graduation fee will be refunded only in the event the student does not meet graduation requirements. Any student completing a second certificate, diploma, or degree within the same graduation year will be required to pay the additional cost of the certificate, diploma, or degree. Graduates of the Adult High School program and High School Equivalency (HSE) program pay the same fee required of curriculum graduates.

Tax Information

Form 1098T-Tuition Payments Statement will be available in an electronic format on the student’s Self Service account by January 31.

If the student elects to receive the Statement electronically, he/she must log onto Self Service and print the form. The 1098T Statement will remain in electronic format thereafter unless the student changes his/her preference.

If the student does not choose the electronic format, Form 1098T will be mailed to the student by January 31. If the information on the 1098T is incorrect according to his/her records, the student should bring it and copies of his/her records to the Cashier Office for correction. Form 1098T captures only the amount billed to the student.
