Payment Policy

All student accounts are due on or before the first day of classes each semester. Accounts may be paid in cash, or by check or money order. Because of the high processing fees, FST does not accept credit cards for payment of tuition and fees.

 

If full payment of current tuition and fees by the first day of classes is not possible, students must make a payment plan arrangement with the Business Manager at the beginning of each semester.

 

Unpaid balances cannot be carried over from semester to semester. Any unpaid balances will be subject to finance charges and collection procedures. Students with unpaid balances will not be permitted to register for the following semester. Diplomas or transcripts will not be issued unless all accounts are paid in full.

 

*Intersession: FST students enrolled full-time in Fall semester may take 1.5 credits at no charge. Additional classes will be charged at the part-time rate. Non-full-time FST students will be charged the part-time per unit rate.

**Continuing Registration Fee: MTS students no longer taking classes, but in thesis.
 
Tuition and fees are subject to change without notice.
