Other Items to Be Aware Of
Decide to Not Take a Class?
Oh no! We wish you could stay with us and take a class, but we understand circumstances change. If you need to drop a class prior to the start of the semester, do so by logging in My Mission Portal. Not doing so could lead to a hold on your account and/or collections.
Students Registering After the Drop Deadline
Students who register after the drop deadline, are enrolled in classes when the term begins, and have not paid their tuition and/or fees, will incur a financial obligation to the college AND a hold will be placed on their record if payment is not received or they do not drop prior to the refund deadline.
Students who do not meet these financial obligations in a timely manner will have their outstanding financial obligation (or, their account) sent to collections.
Holds on Your Account
If you continue not to pay your fees, a hold will be placed on your account. You will not be able to add or drop classes. More details on our hold policy. Students who continue not to pay their bills can be sent to collections.
