Important Dates
Once a student registers for classes, tuition and fees are assessed to their student account. Students can review their charges in their MyPima MyAccountManager. We recommend ensuring your financial arrangements are ready for the upcoming semester soon after registering. It is ultimately the responsibility of the student to drop the classes that they will not be attending. In some cases, students may be dropped by an administrative process, but this is not guaranteed.
Starting with the Fall 2024 term, Pima Community College will administer the Drop for Non-Payment administrative process. The Drop for Non-Payment process occurs when enrolled students do not pay their PCC account balance, enroll in a payment plan, or secure funding by the tuition payment deadline.
Financial Arrangements to secure your registration and Avoid Being Dropped
- Pay your tuition and fees
- Enroll in a Payment Plan* (Bookstore charges, international student tuition, and prior term balances are not eligible)
- Ensure authorizations are submitted for Third-Party sponsorship
- Check the status of your Financial Aid or Scholarships
- Check the status of your Veterans Education Benefits (If you are utilizing Military Tuition Assistance (TA), you MUST contact PCC's Education Center at dmec@pima.edu or (520) 206-4866 to submit your TA voucher and secure your registration.)
The following expenses are not covered by the payment plan:
- Bookstore charges.
- International student tuition.
- Previous term balances

Students often sign up for classes they do not intend to take. They may be checking how much a course costs or change their minds. Once students add a class, charges are assessed to the student's account, which they remain financially responsible for, even if they never attend class.
It is ultimately the student's responsibility to drop the classes they will not be attending. This process may drop students who inadvertently sign up for courses they did not intend to take. The process also helps with accurate class counts and helps make space for other students.
Yes. Students dropped for non-payment may re-enroll in their classes if space is still available. If tuition and fees are still unpaid by the next payment deadline, the student may again be dropped for non-payment.
A drop occurs before the published add/drop deadline while a withdrawal occurs after. Students who drop a class will have the enrollment and charges for the class removed from their account. Students who withdraw will show the class on their record with a grade of W and still be responsible for paying for the class. For more information about this process visit the Dropping, Adding, or Withdrawing web page. Dropping unwanted classes remains the student's responsibility.
Be sure to check the Financial Aid disbursement dates to determine when you can expect to see your financial aid disbursed to your student account. Please note that disbursement dates are not the date any refund will be initiated.
