Payment options
The Cashier’s Office collects all payments for tuition and fees and disburses student refunds. You may pay by cash, check, Visa, and MasterCard. You may also pay online or set up a monthly payment plan.
Payment Deadline
Payment for tuition and fees is due by a specific payment deadline date prior to each semester. When you register for classes after the payment deadline, payment for tuition and fees is due by the end of the next business day.

Unpaid Balances
Changes to the student schedule can result in an outstanding balance. If payment is not received by the deadline, you risk being dropped from course(s) for non-payment, and may only re-enroll if space is available.
Even though FRCC intends to drop students who do not pay by the deadline, the college cannot guarantee that classes will be dropped for unpaid accounts. Students are responsible for dropping classes even if they do not pay on time. If they do not, they will be responsible for any balance owed. If the student is not planning to attend FRCC, he/she must log on to his/her student account and drop classes by the published add/drop date for the course.
Third-party Payers
You may submit an official authorization if your employer is paying for your tuition and fees. The official authorization is due by the payment deadline. Contact your campus Cashier’s Office for more information.
Tuition Refunds
You must request a refund if you drop a course by completing a Tuition Adjustment Form or by contacting the Cashier's Office. Due to Payment Card Industry (PCI) restrictions all tuition and fee refunds will only be issued in the form of a check to the student. All refunds will be issued within 21 days of their request starting after the first week of courses.
If you drop or withdraw from a class:
- You may drop a class during the first 15% of the course and receive a 100% refund of all tuition, student activity, student center bond, and parking fees. The FACTS enrollment fee (if applicable) will not be refunded.
- While there are no refunds for withdraws, you may withdraw from a course or the college anytime before 80% of the class sessions have been held.
Bad checks
If your check is returned before the official course drop date:
- You will be dropped from all of your classes and charged a bad check fee of $17.00.
- A hold will be placed on your account.
- You will be only responsible for the deferred payment fee, if applicable.
If your check is returned after the official course drop date:
- You will not be dropped from your classes.
- You will be responsible for all outstanding tuition, fees, bad check fees, and resulting collection charges.
- A hold will be placed on your account.
Credit Card Chargebacks
If your credit card charge is reversed before the drop date:
- You will be dropped from all of your classes and will be charged a $15 fee.
- A hold will be placed on your account.
If your credit card charge is reversed after the drop date:
- You will not be dropped from your classes but will be responsible for all outstanding tuition, fees, credit card chargeback fees, and resulting collection charges.
- A hold will be placed on your grades, transcript, and future registration.
