Paying Your Fees
Summer 2013 Semester
Payment for classes is due in full within 14 calendar days from the date of registration or before the first day of class, whichever occurs first.
Students may elect to pay tuition in two installments by signing a Credit Agreement Form. This form must be received by the Cashier's Office in the Welcome Center, 400 7th St N, La Crosse no later than 14 calendar days after registration or before the first day of class, whichever occurs first. A $25 credit agreement processing fee will be assessed to the student for this payment option. This form must be accompanied by a payment of $50. Under the installment payment plan, tuition is due according to the following schedule:
- 1st Installment June 17, 2013
- 2nd Installment July 2, 2013
Students may sign up for a credit agreement (installment payments) through the first week of the semester. After the first week of the semester, no payment plan is available and tuition will be payable in full within 14 calendar days from the date of registration or before the first day of class, whichever occurs first.
Students will be assessed a $35 late fee when any installment balance of $50 or more becomes past due. The maximum amount of late fees that will be assessed per semester is $70. If all classes are dropped by the student prior to the first class meetings, the student will forfeit $50.
Fall 2013 Semester
Payment for classes is due in full by October 11, 2013. A $35 late fee will be assessed on any past due balance over $50.
Spring 2014 Semester
A $50 Non-refundable/Non-transferable registration deposit will be required to be paid prior to registration. This deposit will be applied to tuition charges upon registration. Registration for a class creates commitments for Western (taking an available seat in a class, scheduling instructors, classrooms and resources) therefore this deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable. Students who have third party funding must have written confirmation of at least $50 funding on file with the Cashier's Office prior to registration.
The remaining balance of tuition will be due in full by February 21, 2014. A late fee will be assessed on all past due balances.
