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 over $100, 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.
