International Student Payments

The Accounting office maintains a list of current student fees on their website. In addition to enrollment fees, international students must also pay nonresident tuition and capitol outlay fees. The information below will help you understand how to pay your tuition and fees at SRJC. 

How to View Your Balance

After you register for classes, login to your Student Portal to view your "Class Schedule and Fees" under "My Records:" 

International students must also pay the F-1 Health Insurance fee which is displayed in another area in your student portal. Under "Financial Aid & Fees," click "Pay Fees" to see the insurance fee: 

Payment Deadlines

Tuition and fees are officially due on the first day of class. SRJC will not drop students from their classes for non-payment. However, you must pay your tuition and fees before you will be allowed to register for classes in future semesters. It is important that you pay your balance before your priority registration date, because international students are required to enroll full-time and some classes fill up quickly. 

If the F-1 health Insurance fee is not paid at the beginning of the semester, ISP will place a hold on your account. The hold will prevent you from making changes to your current class schedule. Email Tina Lowe when this fee is paid and she can clear the hold from your account. 

How to Pay Your Fees

Students can pay their fees online, via phone, by mail, or in-person. A complete list of acceptable payment methods is available on the Accounting office website. If paying online through your Student Portal, your entire balance must be paid. If using another method, you can make partial payments or pay for certain fees (like Polly Hall rent or health insurance). To make a partial payment, you must pay in-person at the Accounting office or call them at (707) 527-4973. 

Payment Plans

If you cannot pay your entire balance before your priority registration appointment, you may request a payment plan online. With this option, you can pay 1/3 of your total balance and be allowed to register for classes. The remaining amount will be due in two monthly installments of one third each. You will receive a monthly email reminder with the remaining balance.

*Note: you cannot have two semesters of tuition and fees on the same payment plan. You must pay off the first semesters fees and one third of the second semesters fees before you may register for a third semester of classes at SRJC. Payment plans may not be used to pay for fines like late library returns, athletic gear, or lab fees.

Refunds

The deadline to drop your semester-length classes and be eligible for a refund/reversal of your tuition fees is listed on the Academic Calendar. Some of the smaller fees like Health Services are non-refundable after the first day of class. If you must withdraw from SRJC and drop all of your classes after the semester begins, you may submit a petition to Admissions & Records to request a fee reversal.
