Important Information about Paying Via Workday

  • Only click the submit button one time. Clicking this button multiple times may cause your card to be charged more than once.
  • If your payment was authorized, you will receive a receipt. You can view your Bursar Tuition Bill again to see the payment reflected.
  • If you received a receipt but your payment is NOT reflected on your Bursar Tuition Bill, DO NOT make another payment. Contact the Bursar's Office to review your account before making subsequent payments.
  • If your payment was declined, you will need to find an alternate payment method. NCC does not accept credit card payment over the telephone.
  • NCC is not responsible for multiple payments erroneously authorized by the cardholder or for any fraudulent use of a credit card. Multiple payments resulting in overpayment of an account will be verified and refunded according to the college's refund policy. Only accounts with a credit balance can be refunded.
  • Refunds may take up to 14 days to process from the date we verify a refund is due.

Students that have applied and maintain eligibility for financial aid will receive a refund for any credit balance after all tuition and fees have been paid by said financial aid for the current semester.

Any remaining funds are refunded to the student and may also be used for one of the following educational purposes:

 

Books & Supplies

You can use a percentage of your credit balance to purchase required textbooks and supplies at the NCC Bookstore. The percentage will be based on the number of credits you are taking for the term. Percentages are set by NCC each semester and NCC reserves the right to decrease allowable amounts in future semesters.

Note: Certain types of third-party funding may not be available until 2 weeks prior to the start of the semester and may only allow purchase of required textbooks.

Only students with excess financial aid can access a book credit.
