Summer 2025 Billing and Financial Aid Timeline - Nursing 11212

Course Fees (100 and 200 Level Classes)

Special fees for consumable materials, lab supplies, and use of expensive equipment, transportation, or rental of facilities may be charged in addition to tuition for some courses. The cost of student liability insurance, required in certain health technologies, will be included in the course fee. Students should check the information provided in the course listings in Catalog for courses with additional fees.  

Institutional Fee

The Institutional fee defrays the cost of registration, student activities services, and student support services of a non-instructional nature.

Comprehensive Fee

The Comprehensive Fee is used to maintain technology infrastructure, to expand technology-enhanced learning, library and other campus facilities, student services, and athletic facilities.

Payment Due

As a means of providing experience and emphasizing punctuality and responsibility in business affairs, the University of Rio Grande and Rio Grande Community College prefer to deal directly with the student rather than their parents. Accordingly, all bills will be addressed to the student.

The payment is due one week prior to the first day of the semester. Payment must be received on or before the due day to avoid late fee. Postmarks will not be reviewed. 

If you are a participant of third party billing (e.g. BVR, CAA, TAA, VA, WIA, Jobs & Family Services or Workforce Development), it is your responsibility to provide documentation to the Business Office. You may fax appropriate documentation to the Business Office 740-245-7171 on or before the stated due day.

Returned checks will be charged a service fee. Tuition checks that are returned at the payment deadline will also be charged a late payment fee.
