Enrollment Fees

You are required to pay your fees within seven days of the date you register. If you have not paid by the end of 7 days, you will be dropped at the end of that week. If the drop occurs after the refund/credit deadline for your class(es), you will be responsible for all fees owed.

The Board of Governors Enrollment Fee Waiver (BOGW) only provides a waiver of enrollment and health fees to qualifying students who are California residents. For information on eligibility, see Class Schedule or the Financial Aid Office.

The Financial Aid Office has the Free Application for Federal Student Aid “FAFSA.” This application covers both federal and state financial aid programs. The financial aid application is also available online at www.fafsa.ed.gov.

Fees may be paid by cash, check or money order, Mastercard or VISA. Include your social security or student ID number and CA driver’s license number on your check or money orders. All returned checks and credit card chargebacks will be assessed a $10 service fee.
