The tuition and fees for the credits to be attended each term (a semester consists of two terms, term A and B, each 7½ weeks in length). Tuition and fees must be paid in full prior to the student starting the term. Sura College will accept payments by check, credit card, debit card or bank transfer. These fees are non-refundable after the 7-day cancellation period.
Students whose tuition for the term has not been paid in full will be withdrawn 7 days after the term start date, unless, due to extenuating circumstances, the student files an appeal to the Campus Director prior to the term start date, and the President approves the student’s appeal for continued enrollment. Appeals of this nature are extremely rare, require substantiating documentation as to why the student, due to no fault of their own, is unable to pay the tuition and fees due for the term, and provides evidence as to when payment for the term will be made.
Payments are not subject to finance charges and no discounts are available for paying in advance of due dates.
In the event a student fails a course, the student is required to retake the course and pay the cost per credit, as specified in the students’ enrollment agreement, in the semester and term the course retake is scheduled.
No financial assistance is available at Sura. Any potential loans, payment plans, discounts, or scholarships available to students will be disclosed in the catalog.
Sura is not an eligible institution for participation in Federal Student Aid (FSA) programs and cannot
process a request for or assist with deferment of Title IV school loans.
