Check Your Balance

We don’t mail tuition and fee statements each term, so it’s important to check your balance online in the finances section of MyMTC. Contact the Business Office or help desk at 740-389-4636 ext. 288 or helpdesk@mtc.edu.

Deferred Payment Plan

Students who are in “good standing” with MTC may pay tuition in four installments. The first installment (1/4 of the tuition and fees) plus a $35 non-refundable service charge is due by each term’s fee payment deadline. The three remaining installments are due in approximately 30, 60, and 90 days.

There is a penalty charge for late payments and students with outstanding debts to MTC are not permitted to register for subsequent classes or to receive grades/transcripts.

If you want to use the deferred payment plan, register online, or sign up in the Business Office. Only registered students may initiate and sign the deferred payment plan agreement.

Emergency Loan

If you are in good standing with MTC and have completed at least one semester, you may borrow up to $300 for non-tuition emergency expenses. There is a $20 service fee and the loan must be repaid.

Senior Citizen Fee Waiver

Tuition waivers for qualifying older adults are processed if space is available on a first-come, first-served basis. Please contact the Admission Office at 740-389-4636 for additional information.

Tuition Refund Policy

If you withdraw from one or more regularly scheduled credit courses before the academic term’s census date, you will receive a 100% tuition refund. There will be no refund for courses dropped after the census date. Refer to the MTC calendar for each term’s census date.
For flexibly scheduled courses, you will receive a 100% tuition refund if you withdraw from the course before the first class meeting. There will be no refund if you withdraw after the first class meeting.

Refunded tuition and fees will be returned to the original payment source within 30 days of the date of official course withdrawal. The official withdrawal date is the date the drop/add form is received by the Office of the Registrar or evening receptionist for in-person withdrawals. The postmark or fax date is the official withdrawal date for forms received by mail or fax.

Fees paid for courses canceled by MTC or paid under a mistake of law or fact will be refunded in full.

Students dismissed or withdrawing at the insistence of MTC are not entitled to any refund of tuition and fees.
