Students are responsible for setting up their parents and any other party who require access to the bill. The bill is located in the student portal.

Payments are due on or before the first of the month. A late fee of 1% of the past due amount is charged each month the account remains delinquent.
Prepayment Plan
Students and families who wish to prepay the total four-year tuition fee for full time study at Scripps College, may elect to enter into a Prepayment Plan Agreement. Questions regarding the availability of this plan and the terms and conditions of the agreement should be directed to the Student Accounts Manager at (909) 621-8259.
Delinquent Accounts
An account is considered delinquent when the amount billed is not received on the due date. Delinquent accounts are subject to a late fee of 1% of the past due amount. A financial hold will be put on the account, prohibiting transcripts and diplomas to be released. Once the account is brought current, transcripts and diplomas may again be given. If it is deemed necessary for an account to be assigned to a collection agency, it becomes the responsibility of the person responsible for payment of the bill to pay for all collection cost.
Graduating Seniors
All graduating seniors must have their bill paid in full by April 1 the year of their graduation in order to be financially cleared for graduation. Seniors, who are not financially cleared for graduation, will not receive their diplomas or transcripts on the day of graduation.

Commitment Deposit

Should the new student withdraw before the first 10 days of their first semester at Scripps College, the commitment fee is nonrefundable.
The Commitment fee will be credited the students account in their first semester at Scripps College; on or after September. The Commitment fee is used to cover any unpaid balance. If the Commitment fee results in a credit balance on the student account, this may be refunded upon completion and submission of the Refund of Credit Balance form.

Return checks are subject to a $25.00 return check charge. If the college receives more than two return checks in one academic year, the account will be put on hold, and checks will no longer be accepted as a form of payment.
