Fees | Fees for Non-Credit Courses

St. Petersburg College accepts Master Card and Visa credit cards for payment of fees and certain other financial obligations. Students may use personal checks to make payment for fees. Stopping payment on the check will not relieve the student of the obligation and may result in the placing of all the student's records on "hold." All drops or withdrawals must be done through the registration office by the official due date.

Changes to course numbers and titles are made by the State Department of Education on a regular basis. Such changes to any courses included in this rule will be effective when approved by the State and the fees below will continue to be assessed despite any delays in correcting the course numbers and titles in this rule. The Board hereby grants the President the authority to amend this rule, without further Board approval, to provide for the correction of course numbers and course titles as are approved by the State Department of Education and for the elimination of course fees for courses which have been discontinued.
