THIRD COURSE ATTEMPT TUITION       
The Dallas County Community College District will charge a hugher tuition rate to students registering the third or subsequent times for a course.  All third and subsequent attempts of the majority of credit and work force/continuing education courses will result in a higher tuition being charged.  Developmental Studies and some other courses will not be charged a higher tuition rate. Third attempts include courses taken at any of the Dallas County Community Colleges since the Fall 2002 semester. To view a detailed list of courses that will not be included in the higher tuition rate and other information, please go to http://www.dcccd.edu/thirdcourseattemp/.

PETITION POLICY       
A student who wishes to appeal for a greater refund may do so by submitting a petition and explanation of any extenuating circumstances to the college refund petitions committee. If the committee approves the petition, the college will notify the student and issue a refund accordingly.  Requests for refunds will not be accepted after the end of the semester or summer session for which the refund is sought.       
If you feel your request warrants special consideration:  
  1. Complete the Refund Petition Request (forms are located in the Admission       
    Registrar's Office (S2042),  214-860-8600.)
  2. Attach a copy of your Drop/Withdrawal form 
  3. Attach appropriate documentation, i.e. physician's statement for injury or illness.       
    Visit www.mountainviewcollege.edu/petitionpolicy.htm for more information.      

REFUND PROCESING

Refunds are processed after the first day of class.  Please allow approximately 30 days for refund processing.       

  1. For students who pay by cash, check or money order, refunds will be processed by Higher One's DCCCD Money Card. For further details about Higher One's DCCCD Money Card visit www.econnect.dcccd.edu. Refunds will be processed more efficiently through Higher One. Refund are not issued in cash.
  2. Refunds will be issued to the student unless there is a billing authorization on file with the Business        
    Office.  In this case, refunds will be made to the company.
  3. Refunds for tuition payments made by VISA, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover will be credited back to the credit card.           

RETURNED CHECKS

Checks returned to the college Business Office must be paid in cash, money order, or cashier's check within the limits prescribed by the notification. An additional fee is added for returned checks.  If a check for tuition is returned by the bank for any reason, the college Business Office may submit the check to the Justice of the Peace for appropriate action and collection.   

A stopped payment check will be treated as a returned check. Stopping payment does not drop you from your classes. It is the student's responsibility to drop/withdraw.
