Area high schools that partner with Collin can establish payment deadline requirements earlier than Collin's required payment date. 

Dual credit students should contact their high school for payment deadline dates. 

If the high school deadline differs from Collin's payment deadline, then the earliest deadline should be met, whether it is the high school's or Collin's.

 

Students eligible for tuition waivers or tuition and fee exemptions should contact the appropriate office. 

1. Student Financial Services Office for most tuition waivers
2. Financial Aid Office for most exemption programs
3. Access Office for deaf and blind exemption
4. Academic Partnerships for concurrent high school exemption and dual credit

 

 

If the noted financial aid award is on your account and covers the balance of the current term, (credit or CE), the noted award of financial assistance will hold your course enrollment.  However, if the financial aid award is for a future term, you should pay the amount due for the current term.  

 

Students with accepted financial aid awards noted on the student account as Authorized Aid and an amount sufficient to cover all tuition and fee charges for the term do not need to make an additional payment.  

 

Certified/accepted financial aid funds are disbursed to the student account after faculty certify attendance in the course, which is generally 3-5 days after the Census Date of the primary session in the term, creating a credit balance.  Account charges are deducted from the financial aid credit, and the balance is refunded to the student in 7-14 days. 

 

Scholarships for financial aid awards will be processed as noted above but may only be refunded to the student if authorized by the scholarship donor. 

Students with scholarship credits on their account from an earlier term should verify with Student Financials that those funds may be used for new term charges.  

 

Students are responsible for fulfilling any financial aid requirements, maintaining the current enrollment status of courses, and paying for any balance on the student account not paid in full by financial aid.

 

NOTE - Verify with your financial aid advisor that all necessary steps to receive your award have been completed and maintain an accurate course schedule for the term.

Collin has partnered with Flywire to streamline the process of international payments.

- Allows international students to pay securely from any country and bank

- Generally, in the home country's currency

- Allows students to track their payments from start to finish

- Saves on bank fees and exchange rates

- Access to multilingual customer support team 24/7 with questions on the payment process

 

Payment must be received at Collin by applicable payment deadlines

 

Go to collin.flywire.com to begin an international, secure payment.

Students are responsible for payment of all classes they are enrolled in, regardless of attendance.

 

Payment for any balance should be completed during registration to avoid being dropped for non-payment and to ensure course enrollment.

All payment deadlines must be met to ensure course enrollment.

Making a partial payment does not initiate an installment payment plan or hold registration.

 

Students with an outstanding balance the day after the Early Registration Payment Deadline may be dropped from ALL enrolled courses, even if they were already funded.

 

The dropped for non-payment process occurs every 24 hours. If dropped for non-payment, it is the student's responsibility to re-register and pay for courses. 

 

E-materials are not refundable after the census date.

To have e-material charges completely removed from your account, you must either:

Drop the class on or before the census date

Opt-out of the e-material charge on Canvas on or before the census date

 

It is the responsibility of the student to drop any classes they do not wish to attend. 

To receive a 100% refund, the student must drop before the part of term begins. After that, refunds are percentage based per Texas state guidelines.

Beginning on the first day of the part of term, if the student drops classes on or before the census date, they are still responsible for payment of the tuition percentages.

If the student drops classes after the census date, they are still responsible for payment of any e-materials and tuition percentages of those dropped courses. 

 

 

Payments are applied first to charges for specific terms on the student's account that they select to pay.

 

Collin reserves the right to apply current payments against prior existing balances, regardless of the posted payment term.
 
If you register and pay for multiple terms in the same period and then change your schedule, a credit in one term might be available and could be applied to unpaid charges in the other term. 
 
Contact the Student Financial Services Office to request the credit be applied to your intended balance.
 
To ensure enrollment, the student must meet each payment deadline for courses enrolled for every term and maintain accurate registration status.
