Course Fees
Some courses have special fees, such as field trips, transportation, and supplies.

Nonpayment Policy
Tuition and insurance must be paid in full by the tuition and insurance payment deadline (see academic calendar for deadlines). Failure to pay the full amount or arrange other financial support with the College will result in a late fee of 10% of the amount due up to $60.

Tuition Refund Policy
To receive a tuition refund, students must submit written notification of withdrawal. Refunds are based on the date written notification is received in the Registrar’s Office. Students are not eligible for a tuition refund if they stop attending class or unofficially withdraw. Fees are not refundable. All types of refunds are requested online by going to LDS BC Home Page>LDSBC Student online (left corner)>LDSBC Online Here> SA Self-Service>Learner Services>Finances>LDSBC Refund Application. Click Add a New Value, then follow the menu instructions. (Estimated time to complete is less than 5 minutes.) After classes begin, the tuition refund is automatically calculated using the schedule below. The schedule is based on the date written notification of withdrawal is received by the registration office.

 
Withdrawal Date Refund Amount
1st week of class 100%
2nd week of class 100%
3rd week of class 70%
4th week of class 60%
5th week of class 50%
6th week of class 40%
7th week of class NO REFUND

Withdrawing or Dropping Classes When Tuition is Unpaid
Students who drop or withdraw from a class they have attended when their tuition has not been paid will be charged a fee calculated according to the chart above. (i.e. 1st & 2nd week of class = 0%, 3rd week of class = 30%, 4th week of class 40%, etc.)

Unpaid Accounts
Students who do not pay the balance due in full will have their accounts sent to the Collections Office. The College’s collection agency will charge students collection fees of 25 percent or more, depending on the difficulty of collecting the amount due. The
additional 25 percent will become due the day the collection agency receives the account, even if the student has forwarded monies to the College.
