Personally responsible I understand that I am registering for these courses and am responsible for tuition and other fees associated with these courses, as well as any other obligations that become owed to the College. I must follow the add/drop and withdrawal procedures of the College as outlined in the CWI Dual Credit Registration Packet for the semester of the registration request. Non-attendance or non-completion of a course does not relieve me of my charges. Financial Aid In the event that I receive scholarships or any other financial assistance, I understand and agree that CWI will use those funds to reduce or pay off any allowable outstanding balance owed to the College first and will only issue a refund to me once the outstanding balance owed has been paid in full. If I do not receive a scholarship or scholarship funds are pending, I understand that I am personally responsible for making the payments due on my account according to the appropriate course payment deadline. Failure to Pay I understand that if my account becomes delinquent (which may include but is not limited to, tuition and other fees associated with the courses, financial aid, student activity fees, and other campus and college fees), I will be liable for and agree to pay the College of Western Idaho all costs and expenses incurred by the College in seeking collection of the delinquent obligations, including but not limited to fees and other costs charged by third parties, such as reasonable attorney fees and costs. Further, I understand that the College of Western Idaho may refer my delinquent account to a third party collection agency. If that occurs, I agree to pay any fees and costs assessed by the collection agency, which may include a fee calculated on a percentage not to exceed 33% of the outstanding delinquency. Drop for Nonpayment I understand and agree that if I fail to make any payment prior to the payment deadline, a $50 late fee will be applied to my account and I may be dropped for nonpayment after 5pm on the drop deadline. Being dropped for non-payment is not a guarantee and will not replace my requirement to submit an Add/Drop Form to the Dual Credit Office for any course I intend to drop. If you are dropped for nonpayment, no grades or official academic transcripts will be awarded. Students seeking reinstatement after being dropped for nonpayment may be charged a reinstatement fee of $10 per credit up to $120.

Double the Credit, without Doubling Time or Money! (continued from front cover) Payment Policies 1. Grades Dual credit students are held to the same course content standards and standards of achievement as those expected of students in postsecondary courses. Dual credit students are assessed using the same methods (e.g. papers, portfolios, quizzes, labs, etc.) as their on-campus counterparts. Postsecondary courses administered through the Dual Credit program reflect the pedagogical, theoretical, and philosophical orientation of the sponsoring faculty and/or academic department at CWI. Any grade appeals follow the policies described in the CWI Catalog. Students may view their grades through the mycwi student portal. If you are receiving high school credit your school may require an official transcript as record of your grade and credit hours. Without a Dual Credit Student Records Release & Consent Form on file, the institution will not release academic information to parents. Please be aware that your grade does go on your permanent academic transcript. Drop and Withdrawal Procedures Dual credit students can only drop/withdraw from courses by submitting an Add/Drop form directly to the CWI Dual Credit Office. Being dropped from a course for non-payment is not a guarantee. Students taking Dual Credit courses at a high school campus will have different drop and withdrawal deadlines than course taken on campus or online. Please review the included CWI Student Checklist for additional information. Deadlines are published in the official academic calendar each semester for on campus and online courses and within this packet for courses offered at high schools. Students dropping courses prior to the drop deadline are entitled to 100 percent refunds of tuition and fees. A dropped course does not generate a permanent academic record. All class drops must be officially recorded by the College by completing an Add/Drop form and submitting it to the Dual Credit Office. Classes may NOT be dropped by telephone or e-mail. Failing to drop by this method may result in an outstanding debt to the College as well as a permanent academic transcript record with a grade of F. Once the drop deadline has passed, students may withdraw from courses or completely withdraw from all courses taken on campus or online that are a full semester in length through Friday of the twelfth week of class for fall and spring semesters or Friday of the sixth week of class for the summer semester; courses offered at the high school will have until the withdrawal deadline provided in this packet. A withdrawn course generates a permanent academic transcript record with a grade of "W". This is considered an unsuccessful attempt and can have impact on a student s financial aid eligibility. Students who withdraw from courses after the census date are NOT entitled to refunds and the full balance owed remains due and payable to CWI. Earn College Credit in High School 2. 3. 4. 5. Students will be charged the $65 per credit tuition rate as established by the State Board of Education Council on Academic Affairs and Programs (CAAP) plus any additional online or lab fees associated with the courses for which they enroll. Books and materials are the responsibility of the student. Students who do not make payment in full by the appropriate deadline will be charged a $50 late fee and may be dropped from courses for nonpayment. Please review the included Student Checklist for additional information on these dates. Payment may be made online via mycwi, at the CWI Dual Credit Office, or at any of the CWI One Stop Student Services locations. Students, and their cosigner if required, will be bound by the Dual Credit Payment Agreement that appears on the back page of the Dual Credit Registration Form included in this packet. Official Transcripts Order official transcripts online at www.studentclearinghouse.org. Please make sure to request these transcripts from the College of Western Idaho. Requests received without the appropriate fees will NOT be processed. Official CWI transcripts will not be released if there are HOLDS (financial or other) on the stu-dent's account. Until financial obligations are cleared by the student (or stayed by bankruptcy proceedings or discharged in bankruptcy) CWI will not issue official transcripts. Students have a right to review the records and to request a hearing if they believe that no debt is owed or the amount of debt is incorrect. CWI will not issue transcripts of work completed at other institutions, students need to order direct-ly from the original source.
