Part 1 3.7.qxp - Southwestern Oregon Community College

Getting Started
Register for Classes
After meeting with an advisor and being approved to register, a student can go
online to WebAdvisor at www.socc.edu or visit the Student First Stop Center.
Students should print a copy of their website registration for their records. For
assistance call (541) 888-7352.
Note: Students not receiving financial assistance must make payment at time
of registration.
Paying for Classes
Current tuition and fees are listed in the Schedule of Classes published each term
and online at www.socc.edu/admissions/tuition.html.
Due to the current economic conditions in Oregon, tuition and fees are
subject to change at any time.
International students should refer to the Schedule of Classes or online at
www.socc.edu/admissions/tuition.html or the Academic Information and Policies section
for current tuition and fee information.
Note: Tuition for out-of-state students and Oregon resident students is the same.
Responsibility for Payment
At the time of registration, the student assumes the responsibility for paying the
amount due for the courses and fees. At the time of registration, an accounts
receivable will be created for the student in the amount of tuition and fees that is owed.
Payment may be made by cash, check, money order, VISA, MasterCard, or
Discover Card. Make checks payable to Southwestern Oregon Community College or
pay online at WebAdvisor.
An Educational Payment Plan (in three or more installments) is available to all
students. For more information see a Student First Stop Representative in
Dellwood Hall.
If the student formally withdraws before the term starts or during the refund period
(see Schedule of Classes for specific dates), the student will not be responsible for
payment of tuition or fees. Formal withdrawal requires the student to submit a signed
and dated add/drop form to the Student First Stop Center or use WebAdvisor at
www.socc.edu.
Failure to receive a statement does not relieve the student of his/her
financial obligation.
