To secure reenrollment, fifty percent of semi-annual tuition for new students or fifty percent of annual payments for continuing students, must be paid.
Continuing students who fail to make payments according to their signed tuition agreement form for more than 60 days past the due date will be charged a late fee of $15.00 per month until a payment equivalent to 1/12 of total annual fees is made.
