Paying Your Bill
Students must do one or a combination or one of the following before the tuition deadline or their scheduled courses will be dropped:
- Pay tuition and fees in full. In your myBC3 account, select Make Payment on the Tuition, Fees & Payment card. Payment can also
be made at any BC3 location.
- Secure financial aid to cover tuition and fees in full. In your myBC3 account, select View My Financial Aid Info on the Financial Aid card to view your
status and awards or access applications such as the FAFSA.
- Enroll in the EZ-Pay Payment Plan. In your myBC3 account, select EZ-Pay Payment Plan on the Tuition, Fees & Payment card to enroll.
If you decide not to attend after you enrolled, you must drop classes immediately to avoid possible charges and to free seats for other students. BC3 reserves the right to cancel classes if enrollment does not meet appropriate levels and change the schedule as necessary.
