When do I pay tuition?
Don't get dropped from classes! Pay tuition on time!
Generally, tuition is due when you register. Paying at that time will
eliminate any chance that you will be dropped from your classes for nonpayment. If
you are not able to pay tuition when you register, please contact the
Registration and Records Office at (509) 574-4700 or by email at
registration@yvcc.edu, for tuition due dates. If your tuition
is paid by a third party, it is your responsibility to verify your
tuition has been paid. If you foresee problems paying your tuition,
contact our Cashier's Office and ask about the Student Tuition Easy Pay
Plan (STEPP). This new monthly-pay program will assist qualified
students in paying their tuition on time. To view current tuition
