The Financial Aid Office assists students with scholarships, loan and grant information, and the financial aid application procedure. The office may also be able to help students with part-time employment through the Federal Work Study program. On-campus positions include tutoring, working in office areas, resource center/library positions, lab positions, and working with specific departments in several capacities. There are also work-study positions with off campus agencies and organizations available.
Students may apply for financial aid by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online. The college’s website directs students to the appropriate web address. Students without internet access should consult with a financial aid staff member.
Current information regarding tuition and fees may be found in the Catalog. The Catalog can be accessed from the South College website (www.south.edu) by clicking on Academics. Tuition and fees are payable on the first day of each term unless an installment payment plan has been set up and approved by the Business Office. All students are expected to take the initiative to promptly pay their financial obligations to the college. Failure to pay accounts, when due, may result in dismissal from the college.
Installment Payment Plans
Although many students pay their tuition in full at registration each term, the college has several installment payment plans available for qualified students who may need to use income from a part-time job or personal resources to pay tuition each quarter. Information about installment payment plans is available from the Financial Aid Office. Please note, an installment payment agreement is a privilege extended to qualified students. Students who do not meet their approved payment schedule may have the privilege of installment payment withdrawn. Students may make tuition payments through the Business Office via telephone, in person on campus, or arrange for monthly automatic withdrawals from designated accounts.
Financial Responsibility
Students are expected and required to meet all financial obligations to South College incurred while enrolled. Registration for future terms may be restricted in cases where financial obligations are not met. If a student fails to satisfy all financial obligations prior to graduation, receipt of the degree or certificate may be delayed or held until those financial obligations are resolved.
Refund Policy
Tuition and fees are charged on a quarterly basis. If a student withdraws for any reason, tuition and fees will be refunded according to the applicable policy cited in the Catalog.
