Frequently Asked Questions - FALL 2009

Do I have to pay in full?
Yes, or have an approved deferment or an approved FACTS payment plan.

What if I register after July 24, 2009?
Full payment is due at the time of registration. If you can not pay in full, you must apply with "FACTS" for a payment plan or qualify for a deferment to have your registration held.

What if I can’t pay until I get financial aid?
If RCTC has your financial aid application (FAFSA) on file, your registration will be held. Your classes will NOT be dropped. You will have until Friday, September 25, 2009 to complete your financial aid file, apply for any loan(s) and have funds applied to your RCTC account for a zero balance due to avoid a late/payment plan fee. Note: application fro financial aid is not a guarantee that you will received financial aid.
