Part time students will be charged at $398 per credit hour.
Returning fall 2009 juniors and seniors with catalogs prior to the academic year 09-10 will be allowed to take up 18 credits within the full time rate. This benefit will expire fall 2010 for seniors and spring 2011 for juniors. Failure to complete the required number of credits toward graduation before this timeframe would result in students to be subject to the additional cost associated to the maximum number of credits permitted within the full time rate. Such number of hours permitted within the full time rate would be that of the latest catalog edition. The enrollment beyond 18 credits will be charged individually at the existing credit rate.
Returning fall 2009 freshmen and sophomores with catalogs prior to the academic year 09-10 will be allowed to take up to 18 credits within the full time rate. The enrollment beyond the 18 credits will be charged individually at the existing credit rate.
New freshmen entering fall 2009 on, are subject to the new credit system and may take up to 16 credits. The enrollment beyond the 16 credits will be charged individually at the existing credit rate.
Any academic issue regarding credit hours should be addressed to the Academic Dean.
STUDENT ACCOUNTS
Each student is assigned a student account by the Business Office. All financial transactions between the student and the University are reflected on the account. Each student is responsible for making the necessary and timely payments on his/her account to maintain the account current. Payments must be made to the Business office in person by mail or by wire transfer to one of the University banks. The date of payment will be the date upon which it is received in the Business office or bank. The University accepts cash, personal checks, VISA, Master Card, American Express, Dinners, and Discovery. Click here for payment information .
All past-due accounts must be settled in full in order for a student to register. Checks submitted to the University in payment of student accounts and returned unpaid will result in the student‘s account being charged a $30.00 returned check fee plus any related bank charges. If a returned check causes a student account to fall into a past due status, all appropriate late fees will apply.
Financial accounts must be paid in full in order to take final examinations, receive grades, register for another semester, receive a degree, or receive a transcript of credit.
No transcript will be released unless any unpaid balance is paid in cash. If paid by check, there will be a ten-day waiting period from the date the University receives the check.
