Tuition Refunds/Credit Vouchers for Students
Called to Active Military Service
Any active student who is required to withdraw
from classes during his/her regular semester or summer
term due to active military obligations will be
entitled to a full refund of tuition or credit voucher
(unless paid by a state/federal agency) upon evidence
and notification to the college within the semester or
term of withdrawal.
Financial Obligations
All Triton College students have the responsibility
to make tuition and fee payments by established due
dates. The Bursar’s Office will determine when a student
is in default of a required payment. It is the policy
of Triton College that the following take place:
1. The student’s records will be sealed and not made
available to the student until all financial obligations
are met in full.
2. The student will not be permitted to enroll in
additional courses until all financial obligations
are met in full.
3. Students not meeting financial obligations will
have their accounts referred to a collection agency.
The fee associated with the collection agency is
the student’s responsibility, in addition to all
unpaid tuition and fees.

Residents of the Triton College district who are 60
