PAY YOUR TUITION
LTC payment methods include cash, check, money order, credit card (Visa or MasterCard), a completed Financial Aid Award, a third-party authorization, and the LTC payment plan. Refer to MyLTC for detailed payment plan options and dates.
Students anticipating expenses to be paid by an agency such as the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA), Trade Adjustment Act (TAA), Veterans Benefits, or Department of Vocational Rehabilitation must provide an authorization form detailing the course(s) and fees approved for payment.
Students who have not been awarded financial aid from LTC’s Financial Aid Office and elect to sign a payment plan agreement must follow the payment plan guidelines and pay a nonrefundable participation fee at the time of signing up for the payment plan unless the student chooses the auto-withdrawal option for payment.
Any unpaid balance is the responsibility of the student. It is the student’s responsibility to ensure that all applicable financial aid, third-party payments, and other outside payments are applied to their account as expected. Balances not paid by the due date are subject to:
• A late payment fee of $100 for failure to pay by the due date; $100 maximum per semester.
• Referral to an outside collection agency and collection costs, and to the Tax Refund Intercept Program or State
Debt Collection.
• The withholding of transcripts, grades, diploma, etc.
• Not being able to register until balances are paid.
Up to date billing information is found within MyLTC.
