Students should arrange to pay their total tuition, fees and charges as the final step of the registration process if they wish to be admitted to classes. Students who may be eligible for financial assistance or grants should consult with the Financial Aid Office as early as possible.

Individuals who have reached the age of 60 prior to the first day of a semester may enroll for undergraduate courses on an audit basis and pay only the Senior Citizen’s fee of $65.00 plus the $15.00 consolidated fee. Persons in this category may enroll on a space available basis after degree students have had an opportunity to register. Students must document their eligibility by submitting a copy of one of the following:
Excess hours are contact hours (class hours) in excess of credit hours. Graduate students taking classes that have more contact hours than credit hours pay an excess contact hour charge. For example, if a 3-credit class meets 5 hours a week, a NY State resident student pays $65 per excess contact hour ($130 for 2 extra hours) and a non-NY State resident pays $85 per excess contact hour ($170 for 2 extra hours).
When courses are cancelled by the College, a full refund of appropriate tuition and fees will be made. In other cases, tuition refunds will be made or liability reduced only in accordance with Board of Trustees regulations. Further information can be obtained from the Office of the Registrar. On approved applications, proportionate refunds of tuition will be made in accordance with the schedule below. The date on which the application is filed, not the last date of attendance, is considered the official date of the student’s withdrawal and serves as the basis for computing any refund.
Withdrawal before the first day of classes (as published in the Academic Calendar)
Withdrawal before completion of the first full scheduled week of classes
Withdrawal before completion of the second full scheduled week of classes
Withdrawal before completion of third full scheduled week of classes
Withdrawal beyond third week
Consolidated, student activity, materials and technology fees are not refundable.
Students who do not make full payment of their tuition, fees and other college bills and whose account is sent to a collection agency will be responsible for all collection costs, including agency fees, attorney fees, and court costs, in addition to whatever amounts are owed to the College. In addition, non-payment or a default judgment against a student’s account may be reported to a credit bureau and be reflected in their credit reports.
Students are assigned residency status when admitted to the College. Since residency determines tuition rates, students should know their classifications. If there is a question of status it is the responsibility of the student to prove residency. A "CUNY Residency Form" is available at the Office of the Registrar. New students must apply through the Office of Admissions.
The Financial Aid Office administers federal and state funds, as well as those provided by special programs and the College itself. Federal funds may be disbursed only to those who maintain their academic standing and are not in default of a student loan or owe a refund on a federal grant. For the most recent information on application filing procedures, deadline dates, and eligibility criteria for the various programs, students are urged to contact the Financial Aid Office.
