Registration and Billing
Registration: New and Returning Students
New and returning students should finalize their registrations before September 2nd for the fall semester and before January 19th for the spring semester. An officially registered student is one who has completed registration per instructions, has obtained any necessary approvals, and has settled all charges with Student Financial Services. Students may make registration changes without financial penalty before the second Friday of the fall or spring semester. Students may, with the permission of the instructor and their advisor, make changes to their course registrations during the third and fourth week of classes. No student may register for any course after the fourth Friday of either semester.
Billing: New and Returning Students
Initial tuition bills are mailed and emailed in mid-June for the fall semester and mid-November for the spring semester. Subsequent billing statements are sent monthly throughout the duration of the semester for any account with a balance due. Billing correspondence is mailed to the current home address on file and emailed to the Simmons email address as well as the email address of any Authorized User the student has added. Students are responsible for maintaining accurate demographic information. Tuition e-bills are also uploaded monthly to the online Student Account Center which can be accessed via AARC. Any student who is registered but does not receive a bill by these dates should contact Student Financial Services immediately. For new students who are accepted to the College after the respective billing dates noted above, all charges are payable upon receipt.
