Fee Payment Process and Drop
for Non Payment Schedule
Prior to the start of the term Fees are due IMMEDIATELY at the time you register for classes. Golden West College does not bill for registration fees. If payments are not received by the fee payment deadlines students WILL BE DROPPED from classes to make seats available for other students seeking to register. It is the student’s responsibility to withdraw from classes by the refund deadline to ensure cancellation of fees.
Late Registration - Once the term has started Students who register for classes after the term begins WILL NOT be dropped for non payment. (See late start classes drop schedule below). Students will incur a financial obligation to the college AND a hold will be placed on their record if payment is not received. This hold will block future registration (adds, drops), obtaining transcripts, grades, diplomas, or verification of enrollment until all fees are paid.
Financial Aid Students
BOG Fee Waivers pay enrollment fees ONLY. Students with a BOG Fee Waiver must pay the required health fee, College Service Charge and materials fees or you will be dropped from your classes if you register prior to the start of the semester. If you know the financial aid office has posted your fee waiver (BOGW) to your account, but it is not showing on your MyGWC, click on the refresh button on your browser to recalculate your fees. If this doesn’t work, log back in no later than the next day to see if your fee waiver has been posted. If it has not, please pay the total balance due to avoid being dropped.
IMPORTANT: Students are responsible for any fees incurred and grades received. It is the student’s responsibility to drop classes by the State mandated refund deadline to avoid fee obligations and must print a student class program (available via MyGWC) to verify their withdrawal. (Once classes begin, non-attendance or non-payment does not release the student from his responsibility and may result in failing grades begin awarded).
