In order to student charge, you must be enrolled in classes for the quarter you are trying to purchase items for. When student charging items at the cash register, you will need your student ID. You cannot student charge if you do not have your student ID. Any purchases made with student charges are applied directly toward your tuition and must be paid when tuition is due for that quarter. If a balance is carried over between quarters, a hold will be placed on your account, preventing further Student Account charges except for required course materials. You have a student account charge limit of $1200.00.

Student charges are open 4 weeks prior to the start of every quarter. During Fall, Winter, and Spring quarter, charges close 5 days after the first day of class. During summer, student charges open 4 weeks prior to the start of the quarter and close the 2nd day after the first day of class.
