Post-graduation continuation fee (charged for continued enrollment to complete DAOM coursework post-graduation): $200/month beginning the 3rd month after program completion. The $200/month post-graduation fee will accrue to your account once a month for each month that you need to continue in the program to complete your degree requirements. The accrued fees will be due and payable quarterly on the 1st of March, the 1st of June, the 1st of September and the 1st of December. Late payment fees will be added if payments are not made by the due dates.

All tuition and fees, including the post-graduation fee, must be paid in full before a diploma and/or transcripts will be issued.

Late Payments

Payments must be made in a timely manner. The schedule of tuition payment due dates for each academic year, and for the last days to pay without incurring a late fee, is detailed above. Students paying their accounts after this date will owe a late fee of $10 for the first day, and $5 for each day thereafter, for outstanding balances paid after that date. Students are encouraged to see the Business Office Manager to arrange a payment plan if needed. In the event that payment remains in a delinquent status for an extended period or if payments are habitually late, the student may be dismissed from the program.

Refund Policy

A student may terminate enrollment by giving written notice to the college. If the student withdraws before the start of the first module of the academic year, all tuition paid for that academic year (less a $100 administrative fee) will be refunded. If the student withdraws after the start of the first module of the academic year, all tuition paid for that academic year will be refunded less the following charges:

$1,590.00 will be charged for any module or portion of a module attended in that academic year, plus a $100 administrative fee. Note: If written notice of termination of enrollment is not received by the college, the student will be considered to still be enrolled in the DAOM program and will be responsible for the payment of tuition and fees.
