Financial Obligation
Students are expected to make full payment when they register. Other arrangements may be made subject to approval with the Business Office. PWSCC accepts MasterCard, Visa, and Discover. If a student becomes delinquent in payment of any amount due to PWSCC or any other unit within the University of Alaska Statewide System, PWSCC reserves the right to withhold transcripts, diplomas and final grade reports and to refuse future registration until the amount due is paid in and reported to the credit bureau.

Easy Pay Payment Plan
If unable to pay all fees at registration and in good credit standing with the University, a student may apply for an Easy Pay interest-free loan. A $25 fee must be paid at time of application and the applicant must demonstrate the ability to repay the loan. According to the signed payment plan, the remainder is paid in installments; the balance must be paid in full prior to the end of the semester. Late fees of $25 will be added to any late payment per the loan contract. Failure to make timely payments may result in immediate cancellation of classes, holding of university records and loss of university services until payment in full is received. Registration at other University of Alaska campuses may also be affected.

If any classes are dropped before the account is paid in full, refunds or balance due adjustments will be made according to the refund policy below. If the student withdraws before her/his account is paid in full, the student is still liable for any balance owed.

In any case in which a significant curtailment is judged proper by the University, the college’s liability shall be limited to (at most) a refund of tuition and other fees paid.

Refund Policy
Registered students may receive a refund (if appropriate) only after they have completed official drop paperwork. The date of each transaction, on the drop form, will determine eligibility for a refund (based on the schedule below). The refund deadlines are also published in the semester Class Schedule. Students are responsible for thoroughly reading the Class Schedule and being aware of the published refund deadlines for their particular classes. Students who drop or withdraw or who are administratively dropped or withdrawn from courses as a result of disciplinary action forfeit all rights to any refund.
