The CCMS Net Price Calculator is provided as a tool to estimate your costs while attending CCMS. Federal Direct Loans and other resources are also available to assist with paying your charges. 

Please note that the Net Price Calculator is designed by the Federal Student Aid Programs to estimate first-year, first-semester student costs; however, CCMS is a transfer-only institution, and we have no first-year, first-semester students. The cost information provided by the Net Price Calculator is accurate for the academic year provided; however, Federal and state grants are not estimated here due to the limitations of the calculator. Federal grants as well as grants from the Ohio Department of Higher Education are available to eligible students (the current FAFSA form is required for these).

Tuition Payment

Tuition and fees are due in full no later than the first day of each semester, as seen on the published Academic Calendar. The CCMS Academic Calendar is available at www.ccms.edu. Tuition, fees, financial aid awards and disbursements are viewable in the student’s Populi account Financial dashboard. Enrollment in a CCMS program or any course includes, as a condition, good financial standing under this policy. The CCMS Accounting Office bills students for tuition and fee charges via billing invoice and accepts payments. The CCMS Financial Aid Office makes student awards and is responsible for assuring all eligibility requirements are met prior to aid disbursement.

Tuition and fees are subject to change at the discretion of the college and Board of Trustees. Increases are applicable to current and new enrollment unless otherwise specified. CCMS and the Office of Financial Aid strives to assist students with options where their financial situation may affect their ability to pay tuition by the due date, however it is the student’s responsibility to successfully establish communication with the appropriate administrator prior to a payment deadline to avoid unenrollment for nonpayment of tuition.

As a courtesy, one calendar week grace period may be granted for special circumstances within which a nonnegotiable late fee of $100 will be incurred. Non-payment of tuition and fees by the end of calendar week two of any semester may result in automatic withdrawal from an academic program.

Tuition is paid using the Financial tab in the student Populi dashboard (“Make a Payment”). Payment is accepted using electronical check (no fee) or by credit card (4% fee applies). Students may also share the “Someone Else Paying” url payment link provided under the payment button with a third-party that allows direct payment by that party such as a parent, partner, or employer (no username, password, or access to Populi required.) Payment by physical check on campus is also accepted. Students receiving financial aid should communicate directly with the CCMS Office of Financial Aid at finaid@ccms.edu regarding FAFSA, accepted and declined aid, scheduled and disbursed awards, or any other federal, state, or private aid and loans. Scheduled aid disbursed is reflected and easily viewable in the student Populi Financial dashboard.

Delinquent Tuition Balance

An unpaid tuition balance may result in non-enrollment, financial lock of a student’s Populi account, and no access to grades, courses, and transcripts. Official transcripts and degrees will not be certified or issued for any student/graduate having an outstanding tuition balance. Delinquent tuition is subject to a 1.5% accruing monthly interest charge.
