Fees for Apache County are determined by intergovernmental agreement and may vary. Specifics for each term appear in the semester's and summer sessions' NPC Class Schedule.
Out-of-state tuition and fees are waived for New Mexico residents taking 1-6 credit hours or 12 or more credit hours via a reciprocal agreement with the New Mexico Commission of Higher Education. Application for tuition waivers must be submitted to the Admissions Office prior to registration for the student to qualify for in-state tuition. Waivers are limited. Reapplication is required each semester.
Funds will be first applied to any encumbrances owed to the College. The refund schedule begins with the first day of registration. Sufficient time must be allowed for final clearance of fee payment checks before refunds will be made. Refunds are made by check and mailed from the College Business Office.
All College tuition and fees are due and payable at the time of registration. However, students may take advantage of the eCashier payment plan online via the NPC web site with a total deferred amount of $50 or more. A down payment may be required.
A student who fails to pay his/her outstanding obligations to the College may be denied future enrollment until the account is settled in full. Transcripts and grades will not be released until all financial obligations to the College have been met.
College refund policies vary based on the type of course for which a refund is requested. Course refund policies for courses are as follows:
Tuition and fees are 100% refundable prior to the first day of the semester; 50% during the first and second weeks of the semester. No refund after the end of the second week of the semester.
100% prior to the first day of session; 50% through the first two days of session.
100% prior to the first day of classes; 50% first and second day of classes. No refund after second day.
100% prior to the first day of classes; 50% first day of two-day workshop of classes. No refund on/after second day of two-day workshop. No refund on/after first day of one-day workshop.
To receive a 100% refund for an online course a student must cancel his/her class participation within one week of registration and not have initiated any online course work. A 50% refund is provided if a student has canceled his/her class participation within two weeks of registration and has not initiated any online course work.
All refunds are made by check and are mailed from the NPC Business Office.
Northland strives to be fair in the processing of Course Change Forms to determine possible tuition and fees refunds. If a student registers in a course s/he no longer wishes to take, or the schedule changes after the student has enrolled in a course, Student Services must determine if a 100% or 50% tuition and fee refund is warranted to students dropping a class within the first two weeks of the semester. A 100% refund is given only under certain circumstances, such as when the College must change an initial course schedule. Therefore, students should be aware that the amount refunded varies. Refund cases will be reviewed on an individual basis. Students dropping a course from their class schedule after the first two weeks of the semester will be held responsible for full payment of tuition and fees.
Students whose class(es) are canceled by the College will receive a full refund of all tuition and fees for the canceled class(es).
