When is the tuition payment for each semester due?
The tuition payment for the Fall semester is due in early August, and the tuition payment for the Spring semester is due in early January.
 

What if I do not pay my bill on time?
If payment of your tuition bill is not received on time you risk being dismissed from the college.
 

Can I get an extension on paying my bill?
Unfortunately, no extensions may be made on payment deadlines. However, you may make monthly installments through Tuition Management Systems
 

When will financial aid be disbursed to my account?
Financial Aid disbursements begin after the third full week of classes and then on a continuous basis throughout the remainder of the semester.
 

When will I receive my financial aid refund check?
Once financial aid has covered any outstanding balances owed to the college the excess will be mailed to the student at his/her home address.
 

May I pick up my refund check?
All refunds are mailed to the student's home address. They may not be picked up at the Bursar's Office.
 

Will I receive a refund if I drop from 15 credits to 12 credits?
A student carrying 12 or more credits is billed at the full-time flat tuition rate. As there is no additional charge for credits in excess of 12, there is no refund if those credits are reduced from 15 to 12.

Do I have to accept the college health insurance?
If you are already covered by a comparable health insurance policy and have completed the online waiver process by the published deadline, then the SSC health insurance charge will be waived off your account. Otherwise, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts requires you to carry the college's insurance. See Student Health Insurance for details.
 

I have set up a payment plan with TMS. Why do I keep receiving a bill?
Because it is a payment plan and not a loan we will receive your payments from TMS on a monthly basis and apply them to your bill. Periodically, we will mail you a copy of your statement, which will show these payments deducted from your outstanding balance.
