Advance Deposits/Matriculation Deposits
New Undergraduate Students: To confirm intent to register and ensure a request to process financial aid, new undergraduate students must deposit $100 on their account. This non- refundable matriculation deposit will be applied to the first semester in which the student enrolls.
New students submitting an application for campus housing are required to submit an additional $250 non-refundable housing deposit. This deposit will be applied to the first semester in which the student enrolls.
Returning Students: Students may reserve a room for the upcoming fall semester (during the allotted reservation period) that is held each spring semester. The housing deposit for returning students is a non-refundable $50. If the deposit is not received during the housing reservation period, a deposit of $250 will be required. This deposit will be applied to the following semester’s housing charges.
Nursing Students: Once a student is accepted in the School of Nursing, a deposit will be required to hold the student’s place in the school. The deposit will be specified by the School of Nursing. When the student registers for the initial semester in the nursing program, this deposit will be credited to the student’s tuition. For more information, please see the School of Nursing section.
All deposits are non-refundable and will be forfeited if the student does not enroll.
Terms of Payment
Tuition, Room/Board and other charges must be paid by published deadlines. Payment installment arrangements may be made using the Piedmont College Payment Plan (PPP). The charge for using PPP is $40 per semester during the fall and spring semesters. There is no payment plan fee for the summer semester. No interest charges will be incurred with the PPP; however, a $15 late fee will be assessed on any payment received greater than five days beyond the payment due date. For additional information please visit the Student Accounts webpage at www.piedmont.edu. International students are responsible for paying their balance in U.S dollars using either a wire transfer to Piedmont College or by providing a check for payment from a U.S. Bank. Payments from international credit cards are also accepted through the student portal, PilgrimNet, or by using the online payment method at www.piedmont.edu. Please contact the Business Office for further details.
Account Status
Students are responsible for checking their account status online by logging into the student portal, PilgrimNet, or by contacting with the Business Office at the beginning and end of each term to make sure all financial arrangements are current.
Withdrawal Policy
Course registration creates a financial obligation to the college. The tuition refund policy is only effective upon receipt of an official withdrawal notice. Non-attendance is not withdrawal. For additional details see the section on Tuition Charge Adjustments.
