Payment of Tuition and Fees

Tuition and fees are due in full prior to the start of each semester. Deferred payments may be allowed on a case by case basis. Balances must be paid in full on or before the last day of class during the semester for which tuition payments have been deferred. A service fee will be charged for any deferred payments.

Refund Schedule

Refunds are calculated on the following schedule for students who have officially withdrawn from PNCA:

Official withdrawal before the first week of classes: 100% of tuition refunded
Official withdrawal during:
first week of classes
90% of tuition refunded
Second week of classes 80% of tuition refunded
Third week of classes 70% of tuition refunded
Fourth week of classes 60% of tuition refunded
Fifth week of classes 50% of tuition refunded
Sixth week of classes 40% of tuition refunded
Seventh week of classes 30% of tuition refunded
Eigth week of classes 20% of tuition refunded
Ninth week of classes 10% of tuition refunded

No tuition refunds will be made for students officially withdrawing after the ninth week of classes, or for those students who unofficially withdraw. Refunds apply to tuition only; fees are not refundable. Tuition and fees cannot transfer to another semester, nor will PNCA reduce tuition due to absence from class, regardless of reason. The Financial Aid Office calculates refund amounts for all students. PNCA follows the Return of Title IV Funds policy with regard to the return of federal (Title IV) student financial aid. Students should be aware that they may owe a balance to PNCA if they officially withdraw from school; the amount of that balance will be determined by the Financial Aid Office in accordance with the Refund Policy stated above and the Return of Title IV Funds policy as stated in the Higher Education Amendments of 1998.

PNCA allows for a certain amount of exploration but also really pushes being clear and concise about what we are trying to get across with our work.”
