Students are required to pay fees as indicated by the fee schedule in each specific program. Semester fees are payable in full by the published deadline posted on the CEI calendar. Payment of the full-time registration fee entitles students to the services maintained by the college for their benefit; no fee reduction is made if the student chooses not to use these services. Non-payment of fees will result in being withdrawn from all classes.

Fees are nonrefundable after the term starts.

For refund information see “Tuition and Fee Refunds for All Courses” on the Business Office  page.
