Tuition Refunds
Refunds
If your account has a credit balance in excess of $15, a refund will automatically be issued within 30 days. Please be sure to verify your mailing address on MyPCC (In Quick Links, click on 'My Records' and link to Personal Information.) If you have a credit balance of less than $15, you may request a refund in person at any campus business office or by calling 503-977-4234.
- Refunds are first applied to outstanding charges on your account, even if payment is not yet due.
- If the credit balance is the result of a payment by a personal check or cash, we will issue a check in your name.
- If your credit balance is the result of a bankcard payment, the bankcard used in the original payment will be credited.
- Refunds resulting from check overpayment are held two weeks from the date of the original payment.
For more information, see the PCC Refund Policy.
Removing Tuition Charges
Charges are applied to your account when you register for a class. All of the charges associated with a class will be removed if you submit your official drop via MyPCC Registration Services, or by submitting an add/drop form to the registration office. You must drop by the published drop deadline for the course. No charges will be removed if you drop after the drop deadline. Drop requirements vary for non-credit and CEU courses.
If an extreme hardship prevented you from continuing your studies through the term, you may request a tuition credit by filing a petition with your campus appeal committee. Your petition must be received by the filing deadline and all past due amounts must be paid before your petition will be considered.
