Make Your Payments Online and On Time!

Make your payments online on WebRunner with credit cards, checking or saving accounts. Late payment will result in a late payment fee of $30 per billing period. It may also result in denial of further credit, impairment of credit history, and additional assessment for late payment fees, collection charges and attorney fees. Personal checks, travelers checks, cashiers checks, and money orders are accepted for the amount due only. Two-party and postdated checks are not accepted. A $20 fee is assessed on any returned check, whether written by you or another party.

Factors That May Affect Your Tuition Regional Programs: Some programs are designated “regional,” allowing out-of-state students to pay in-state tuition for the first term. These students must establish and meet LBCC’s residency requirements to qualify for in-state tuition for subsequent terms. Student Activity and Program Fee: Students are assessed $2.15 per credit as a student activity/ program fee (included in the chart above). Income derived from this fee supports extracurricular activities and programs. Note: These fees are subject to change. An ASLBCC fee is assessed per term at a rate of $4.30 for 1-5 credits or $8.60 for 6 or more credits.

Payment Information Payment deadlines can be found at linnbenton.edu/paymentdue-dates. Payment is due at time of registration. Late fees will be assessed on the dates listed at linnbenton.edu/ payment-due-dates. Check your current account balance information on WebRunner or call 541-917-4303. You will be charged $45 and your account will be placed on hold if payment in full is not made by the first late fee assessed date.

Any unpaid balance will be charged an additional $30 as of the second late fee assessed date. Payment must be made by11:59 p.m. of the late fee assessed date.

Tuition Refunds for Dropped Classes To receive a tuition refund, you must drop a class via WebRunner or by submitting a Schedule Change Form at the Registration Counter in Takena Hall or at one of the LBCC centers by the drop deadlines listed below. (When using WebRunner, be sure to SUBMIT your changes.)

Failure to Pay: All Student Accounts If you fail to make timely payments (including late-payment fees), the college may require immediate payment of the entire account balance. The college will refer the account to an outside collection agency for failure to pay as agreed and will report the status of the account to a credit reporting bureau. If the account is referred to a collection agency and/or an attorney, collection, court and attorney costs will be added to the account. Transcript requests will not be processed if an account is delinquent. LBCC has the right, without prior notice, to stop or suspend the extension of credit and withhold services if billings are returned by the postal service or if minimum payments are not made on time. Withholding services includes, but is not limited to, registration for classes and workshops. The college may change the terms of the LBCC Payment Plan and may change existing and future charges at any time. Notice will be made in advance as required by law.

Registration Information Once you register for a class, you are responsible for all tuition and fees unless you drop the class before the refund deadline. WARNING: The instructor may drop students who do not attend the first scheduled day or week. If you have not attended class and the instructor has not dropped you, you are still responsible for payment. Check your registration status with the class instructor or on WebRunner prior to the end of the second week for full-term classes.
