*During the 2024-25 academic year, some or all of the instructional formats may change due to an emergency situation affecting college operations, public safety, or public health, including the COVID-19 pandemic. Tuition and fees are charged at the beginning of the semester and will remain in place regardless of any changes in instructional format.

If You Don't Pay Your Bill
- You could be dropped from classes
- Fall 2022 – August 1, 2022: If you registered before July 15, 2022, for Fall 2022 courses with tuition and fee balances must make payment by 5:00pm MST.
- You could have a hold placed on your account which will impact your ability to add/drop/withdraw from classes or order transcripts.
- You could be sent to collections and an additional collections commission of 30% would be added to the account balance.
Each semester we do our best to notify students of their outstanding balances. However, it is ultimately your (the student’s) responsibility to monitor your account. Outstanding balance notifications are sent to:
- Student email account (@student.cccs.edu)
- Text message, if you signed up to receive messages to your mobile device through the ACC Notification system.
Outstanding Balance Process
Students with an outstanding balance will receive automatic notices from our system through:
- Your student email account
- Text message, if you signed up to receive messages to your mobile device through the ACC Notification system
- If you have an outstanding balance on your account for the current semester, you will be notified the day before and the day of each payment deadline date
- If you are registering between or on a payment deadline date, you will have to pay your full bill to avoid classes being dropped
- If you are dropped for not paying your bill, we will let you know the next business morning about any dropped class(es)
- If you attempt to re-register and the course is full, you will need to find another course / courses or get the instructor's approval to be added back in before the course's add/drop date
- If the course's add / drop date has passed, then you won't be able to re-register because registration for the course is closed
- If you complete your FAFSA less than six weeks before the start of the semester or are waiting for your Financial Aid to be awarded to your account, you may want to enroll in a payment plan to avoid being dropped from your classes
- Be sure to complete the FAFSA before the recommended deadline to make sure your financial aid is awarded before the payment deadline.
- If you have questions regarding Financial Aid, please email the Financial Aid office at finaid [at] arapahoe [dot] edu (finaid[at]arapahoe[dot]edu).
- Please check recommended deadline under Payment Deadlines for the academic year.
Student Refunds
Refunds will be processed via BankMobile Disbursements or credit card.
You may receive a refund if:
- Your financial aid is more than the cost of attendance
- You drop a course prior to the census date and you have already paid for it
- You have extenuating circumstances and are approved for a refund
Options for Receiving Your Refund through BankMobile Disbursements
Colorado Community College System delivers your refund with BankMobile Disbursements, a technology solution, powered by BMTX, Inc. Visit the BankMobile Disbursements website.
View our third-party servicer contract for refund management.
Refund Guidelines
All refunds will be processed via BankMobile unless only a credit card has been used to pay in the account. Payments made by 529, ACH, Financial Aid, and international payments will be refunded via BankMobile.
*If you change your address in your myACC, you should inform the Cashier’s Office so it can be updated at BMTX, Inc. This is not an automatic process and requires ACC to notify BMTX, Inc. of any address changes. Failure to update your address could result in a delayed refund.
Credit Card Refund Guidelines
Any refunds due to you, including financial aid disbursement, will be credited through BankMobile Disbursements unless payments for tuition and fees have been made with a credit card. If a credit card was used to pay tuition and fees directly to ACC, then the following process will be used:
- The refund will be made back to the credit card used to pay for tuition and fees
- The refund made back to the credit card cannot exceed the original payment from that card
- If the refund is greater than the original credit card payment, the excess refund will be processed through BankMobile Disbursements
Collections
All Colorado Community Colleges are required to use a standard collection process referenced in the Account Agreement students are required to sign.
Item 12 - Collection Fees - To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to pay all fees and disbursements and to reimburse us the fees of any collection agency, which may be based on a percentage at a maximum of 40% of the debt, and all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, we incur in such collection efforts or in legal proceedings to collect or enforce your indebtedness.
ACC uses the following Collection Agencies:
- Colorado State Collections
