Default
on Payment
When
a student registers for coursework or other academic progress, there
are tuition and fees associated with that registration which are
outlined by the Tuition
and Fees
statement published in the summer of each year for the following
academic year. By registering for any academic progress at the
Seminary, each student accepts and agrees to be bound by the
foregoing policy. Students are provided a billing statement at the
beginning of each semester. Students also have access to their
student account through myHood. Students are responsible for all
tuition and fees associated with their enrollment. All tuition and
fees must be paid in full by the end of each semester. Students may
not register for a subsequent semester if a balance from a current or
previous semester remains. If any overdue obligation is referred to a
Collection agency, the debt can be increased to cover all reasonable
costs of collection fees.
