Tuition and Fees

Tuition is due two weeks prior to the start of each semester. It may be paid online through the use of the e-cashier link located on the left, in the Business Office, by mail or by phone. If tuition is paid in installments, it must be paid in full 10 days prior to the beginning of final exams or two weeks prior to the end of the term, whichever is applicable. A fee of $50.00 per semester will be charged to all students who fail to make arrangements to pay tuition and fees prior to the start of classes.

NCC has transitioned exclusively to e-billing, please check your student email for your bill. You will not receive paper bills. Tuition charges can also be obtained by accessing the Student Information System. 

FACTS Tuition Management
(Tuition Payment Service)

In an effort to assist students with tuition charges, the College offers an interest free monthly payment plan administered by Nelnet Business Solutions. The plan allows students to fulfill their financial obligation to the College by automatic electronic processing of installment payments. There is a per semester fee for the program. More information can be obtained from the Business Office or clicking one of the buttons below.
 

EXPENSES FOR 2011 - 2012

Students will pay tuition on a per credit basis:

Comprehensive Student Services

* Supports Student Activities and the Wellness Center.

**An Academic Instruction Fee will be charged for all Laboratory or other similar experiences. This fee will be calculated by subtracting the number of lecture hours from the number of credit hours and multiplying the remainder by $60 for each course. This will be added to the normal tuition charge for that course.

Example:

A non-refundable tuition deposit of $100.00 will be required from all matriculated* students. The President or his/her designee reserves the right to waive the fee for students identified as evening matriculated students, or in circumstances where the collection of the deposit is not feasible (e.g., late admits, financial hardship, obstacle to disbursing financial aid). The deposit will be applied to the tuition for the semester immediately following the student's matriculation and will not be refunded even if the student withdraws during the designated full refund period or if the student fails to attend. The tuition deposit is not transferable to another semester unless an exception is made by the President or his/her designee.

*A matriculated student is defined as one who has been formally accepted into a degree or professional certificate program.

Delinquent Account Collection Process

The following collection clause will be listed on all forms requiring the student's signature:
"I understand by registering for courses at Nashua CC, I am financially obligated for ALL costs related to the registered course(s). Upon a drop or withdrawal, I understand that I will be responsible for all charges as noted in the student catalog and handbook. I further understand that if I do not make payment in full, my account may be reported to the credit bureau and/or turned over to an outside collection agency. I also understand that I will be responsible for the costs of the outside collection agency, any legal fees, and any bounced check fees under RSA 6:11, which will add significant costs to my account balance.

Students who wish to return to Nashua CC will be required to prepay in full for one semester at the time of registration.

Third Party Billing

Where the employer, the VA, or other agency is guaranteeing both tuition and fees, such guarantee must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of the company or agency.

Refunds Policy

Students who officially withdraw from the College or an individual course by the end of the fourteenth (14th) calendar day of the semester will receive a 100% refund of tuition, less-nonrefundable fees. Classes that meet in a shorter format than the traditional semester will have 7 calendar days from the designated start of the alternative semester to withdraw for a full refund. If the seventh (7th) or fourteenth (14) calendar day falls on a weekend or holiday, the drop refund date will be the first business day following the holiday or weekend. Exception: students in courses that meet for two weeks or fewer must drop by the end of the first day of the class in order to get a 100% refund. All Federal Title IV funds (i.e. Pell, SEOG, Perkins Loans, Stafford Loans) are returned to the federal programs according to the rules and regulations mandated by the Department of Education.

Students registered for non-credit workshops must withdraw in writing at least three days prior to the first workshop session to receive a full refund of tuition and fees. In extenuating circumstances, the President (or designee) is authorized to offer alternative compensation in the form of tuition credits to students on a case-by-case basis. Tuition credit on a student account must be used within one calendar year from the date of authorization. All refunds require that students complete an official withdrawal form.

In accordance with Federal regulations, refunds for an amount less than $1.00 ($0.99 or less) will be forfeited.
