PAYING FOR YOUR EDUCATION

Tuition is calculated on a per-semester basis. Tuition for the 2008–2009 academic year is $10,300 per semester. Part-time enrollment is calculated at $858 per unit, or $2,574 per 3-unit class. Part-time enrollment is defined as any student enrolling in less than 12 units. Tuition at LCAD is established annually by the Board of Trustees and is subject to change each year.

Methods of Payment

LCAD accepts cash, check, Master Card, and Visa. LCAD allows students the option to pay tuition in three payments over the course of the semester. Failure to make tuition payments shall be considered cause to bar a student from class, receiving grades, withhold diploma or transcripts, or enforce suspension.

Refund Policy

If a student withdraws from LCAD prior to completing 60% of a semester or 60% of a class less than a semester in length, a refund will be calculated on a pro-rated basis using a percentage that is proportional to the enrollment period completed by the student. The refund is calculated by multiplying the percentage of attendance in the class or classes by LCAD’s charges for the classes attempted. No refunds are paid after the 60% completion date.
