Tuition Information
Validation of Enrollment
Students must validate their enrollment by paying tuition and fees. Students who do not have full financial aid must pay their tuition and fees in full by the close of business on the last day to ADD a class during any semester (refer to calendar in college catalog). Payment options are available to students through FACTS Tuition Management by connecting to the e-Cashier link located on the College Web Site (www.blackrivertech.edu). Students who do not make payment in full or make payment arrangements through FACTS will be dropped from all classes. Students who register for classes during the late registration period after the start of any semester must, upon registering, establish a payment plan or pay tuition and fees in full.
Students who are dropped for lack of payment after the semester starts and wish to re-enter classes will have five (5) business days to clear their account and reactivate their schedule. A $50.00 reinstatement fee will be charged.
The college reserves the right to change the amount of fees and related policies, or to add new ones, at any time such action is deemed necessary.

For the purposes of tuition payment, an out-of-state resident is a person who has not lived in Arkansas for 6 months prior to the beginning of the semester for which they wish to register. A student can show Arkansas residency by presenting any of the following documents at the time of registration for classes, dated 6 months previously:
• Voter registration card
• Receipt for assessment of payment of taxes

If above documents are not submitted at time of registration, students will be charged out-of-state tuition.
