Paying Your Bill
Students must do one or a combination or one of the following before the tuition deadline or their scheduled courses will be dropped:
- Pay tuition and fees in full. Payment can be made online or at any BC3 location.
- Secure financial aid to cover tuition and fees in full.
- Login to MyBC3 and access Financial Aid Self-Service to view your status and awards or access additional applications (like the 2022-2023 FAFSA).

If you decide not to attend after you enrolled, you must drop classes immediately to avoid possible charges and to free seats for other students. BC3 reserves the right to cancel classes if enrollment does not meet appropriate levels and change the schedule as necessary.Ways to Submit Payment
