Reservation fees are collected when Prep Nursing does not intend to collect the full fee/tuition for a service, reducing the financial burden on students and providing them more time to acquire funds. Reservation fees will be associated with a corresponding full fee/tuition due date.

Reservation fees are non-refundable, non-transferable, and non-creditable.

Students are required to pay the full fee, or enter into a binding payment plan agreement, on the full fee/tuition due date. Failure to do so will cause the reservation fee to be forfeited (no refund). The reservation amount will be applied to the tuition/service fee on the tuition due date.

In the event a withdrawal is requested before the start date of the course/service, the penalty will be the reservation fee amount or the standard withdrawal policy amount, whichever is higher (see standard withdrawal policy). This is applicable before and after the full fee due date.
