Cashier Office

The Cashier Office is responsible for processing all payments and issuing refunds. It is essential for every student to be familiar with the tuition and fees associated with attending Georgia Piedmont. Students are expected to understand their financial obligations and pay all tuition and fees by the published deadlines. These charges are collected through the Cashier Office and may change at any time without prior notice. If a student is receiving financial aid, their tuition and fees will be deferred until the aid is applied to their account.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do I make a Payment?
  • Where can I find a list of tuition and fees?
  • What is your refund policy?
    • All tuition and fees, excluding the application fees, will be refunded if a student formally withdraws from all classes before the first day of any semester. Students withdrawing by the end of the scheduled Drop-Add/Late Registration period of the semester shall receive a 100% refund of applicable tuition (hours below the 15-hour tuition cap) and applicable refundable fees, excluding the application fee. Students withdrawing after the scheduled Drop-Add/Late Registration period shall receive no refund. The late registration fee or drop-add fee is non-refundable. See the Academic Calendar for information about when each semester begins and the Drop/Add schedule. If a student registers and never attends class (no-show) but does not formally withdraw from class, the student is liable for all class fees and associated expenses.

      If a student receives federal student aid and the amount disbursed exceeds the allowable charges on the student account, the credit balance will be paid directly to the student. The refund will be issued no later than 14 calendar days from the date the funds were disbursed.

  • What is a Credit Balance?
    • A credit balance is the remaining amount of financial aid after all tuition and fees have been paid.
  • Can I use my credit balance in the bookstore?
    • If you are eligible for the Pell grant and/or loans, and have a credit balance after all tuition and fees have been deducted, you may use the available credit balance in the bookstore during the first week of classes. You must provide authorization for the Cashier’s Office to charge books against your student account if you choose to utilize the credit balance to pay for books. Any balances not used in the bookstore after that period of time will be sent to you by the refund option you have chosen. Contact the Cashier Office for more information regarding refund options.
