If You Don't Pay Your Bill

1. You could be dropped from classes
   1. Fall 2019 – July 31, 2019: If you registered prior to July 24, 2019, for Fall 2019 courses with tuition and fee balances must make payment by 5:00 p.m. MST.
2. You could have a hold placed on your account which will impact your ability to add/drop/withdraw from classes or order transcripts.
3. You could be sent to collections and an additional collections commission of 30% would be added to the account balance.

Each semester we do our best to notify students of their outstanding balances. However, it is ultimately your (the student’s) responsibility to monitor your account. Outstanding balance notifications are sent to:

1. Student email account (@student.cccs.edu)
2. Phone number on file via a recorded message
3. Text message, if you signed up to receive messages via mobile device through the ACC Notification system through myACC

Students with an outstanding balance will receive automatic notices from our system through:

1. Your student email account
2. Automated voice message
3. Text message, if you signed up to receive messages to your mobile device through the ACC Notification system

• If you have an outstanding balance on your account for the current semester, you will be notified the day before and the day of each payment deadline date
• If you are registering between or on a payment deadline date, you will have to pay your full bill to avoid classes being dropped
• If you are dropped for not paying your bill, we will let you know the next business morning about any dropped class(es)
  • If you attempt to re-register and the course is full, you will need to find other course(s) or get the instructor's approval to be added back in before the courses add/drop date
  • If the courses add/drop date has passed, then you won't be able to re-register because registration for the course is closed
• If you complete your FAFSA less than six weeks before the start of the semester or are waiting for your Financial Aid to be awarded to your account, you may want to enroll in a payment plan to avoid being dropped from your classes
  • Be sure to complete the FAFSA before the recommended deadline to make sure your financial aid is awarded before the payment deadline.
  • If you have questions regarding Financial Aid, please email the Financial Aid office at finaid [at] arapahoe [dot] edu. 

You may receive a refund if:

• Your financial aid is more than the cost of attendance
• You withdraw from courses after paying for them
• You have extenuating circumstances

Before receiving a refund, follow these steps to make your refund preference selection:

1. Visit RefundSelection.com
2. Enter your Personal Code
3. Select the option to receive your money

Options for Receiving Your Refund

If you do not go online to choose one of the three options below for receiving your refund, BankMobile will mail a paper check to your address* on file to be received by the student within 14 days.

• Electronic Deposit to a BankMobile Vibe Account: If you open a BankMobile Vibe account, money is deposited the same business day BankMobile receives funds from your school.
• Electronic Deposit to Another Account: Money is transferred to another account the same business day BankMobile receives funds from your school. It typically takes 1-2 business days for the receiving bank to credit the money to your account.
• Paper Check Delivered by USPS: A check is mailed the same business day BankMobile receives funds from your school, provided receipt is within daily cutoff times. It typically takes 5-7 business days for the check to arrive, depending on USPS First-Class delivery timeframes.

Credit Card Refund Guidelines

Any refunds due to you, including financial aid disbursement, will be credited through BankMobile, unless payments for tuition and fees have been made with a credit card. If a credit card was used to pay tuition and fees directly to ACC, then the following process will be used:

1. The refund will be made back to the credit card used to pay for tuition and fees
2. The refund made back to the credit card cannot exceed the original payment from that card
3. If the refund is greater than the original credit card payment, the excess refund will be processed through BankMobile guidelines

BankMobile Refund Guidelines

*If you change your address in your myACC, you should inform the Cashier’s Office so it can be updated at BankMobile. This is not an automatic process and requires ACC to notify BankMobile of any address changes. Failure to update your address could result in a delayed refund. Watch for your BankMobile personal code in a bright green envelope and information in the mail, and select one of the methods above to receive any refunds due from ACC.
