TUITION *<br />
The student’s tuition and fees are established by the college’s<br />
Board of Trustees and are subject to change at any time.<br />
Failure to make payment at the time of registration for tuition<br />
and fees may cause cancellation of your class schedule. In<br />
the event your schedule is canceled for non-payment, you<br />
will not be able to attend OCC unless you re-register and pay<br />
immediately, provided that registration and courses are still<br />
open for selection.<br />
For <strong>County</strong> Students<br />
At publication, tuition for a certified resident of <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />
is based on a per credit hour charge of $92.<br />
The total cost for educating each student is determined by<br />
dividing the cost of operating the college by the estimated<br />
number of full-time equated students attending the college.<br />
The state’s contribution per student is subtracted. The balance is<br />
shared between the county, the student and other miscellaneous<br />
sources.<br />
For Eligible Out-of-<strong>County</strong> Residents<br />
Students attending a county community college outside their<br />
county of residence are eligible for the prevailing in-county<br />
tuition rate under the following conditions: (1) the county of<br />
residence does not sponsor a county college, or (2) the college<br />
in the county of residence certifies that it does not offer the<br />
particular course or program of study desired by the applicant, or<br />
(3) the college in the county of residence certifies that it cannot<br />
admit the applicant into a particular course. Under chargeback<br />
legislation, the sending county is obligated to contribute toward<br />
tuition. For required documentation, contact the Registration<br />
and Records Office at 732-255-0400, extension 2423.<br />
A copy of the student’s <strong>College</strong> Skills Assessment test scores<br />
must be submitted before a chargeback can be considered.<br />
If eligible, the student should request an "Inability to Admit"<br />
form from the college in his/her county of residence and a<br />
"Certificate of Residence for the Purpose of Chargeback"<br />
form from his/her county fiscal officer. These forms should<br />
be presented to the Cashier’s Office at <strong>Ocean</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />
<strong>College</strong> immediately following registration. If the forms are<br />
not submitted, the student must pay out-of-county tuition<br />
rates. Out-of-county students should contact the Office of<br />
Registration and Records for more information concerning<br />
the Chargeback Law.<br />
