Change of Name or Address
Students who change their name or address while enrolled at the college must provide proof of the change and complete a Change of Name/Address Form. To find out what constitutes acceptable proof of change(s) and to obtain a Change of Name/Address Form, contact the Registrar's Office at 617-541-5320.
Changing Course Grades
Generally, once a student receives a letter grade as a final course grade, no grade changes are made. In the event that the instructor determines that a final course grade change is warranted, this must be done by the end of the ninth week of the following semester (excluding summer). The deadline for submitting a change of grade requested for a letter grade will be the same for changing an incomplete grade to a course grade. The Registrar's office will not accept any grade changes after this deadline. Exceptions to this policy must be approved by the professor involved and the academic dean of the student's major.

Payment
If they owe no outstanding balances to the College, students may register with a minimum payment of 50 percent of the tuition and fees due for the upcoming semester. The remaining balance for the Fall Semester will be due on September 30; the remaining balance for the Spring Semester will be due on March 15. All outstanding balances must be paid by money order before registration. For current tuition and fees due, personal checks, bank money orders, Master Card and Visa are acceptable forms of payment. Checks and money orders must be made payable to Roxbury Community College.The College cannot accept cash payments.
Two payment plan services associated with the College, Academic Management Services (AMS) and The Education Resource Institute (TERI), are available to enable students who are paying their own expenses, or late financial aid applicants, to budget their payments on a monthly, semester, or academic year basis. Enrollment in one of these plans allows students to begin paying their tuition and fees before the start of the semester and eliminates the burden of a large lump sum payment. Applications for these plans are available at the Business Office.
Organizations may be billed for tuition if authorization is presented at registration on the organization's letterhead to justify such billing. The student at registration must pay any portion of the tuition not covered by the sponsoring organization.
Senior Citizens
Senior citizens who are 60 years or older are eligible to enroll tuition-free (although fees must be paid) in credit courses offered by the Day Division on a space-available basis. This policy does not apply to credit courses offered by the Division of Urban Affairs and Community Services. Senior citizens may register for non-credit courses free of charge on a space-available basis.
Transcript Requests
To request a transcript, a student must complete a Transcript Request Form, available in the Registrar's Office, or make their request in writing by stating his/her name (when attending the college), social security number, year of graduation, degree conferred or years of attendance, and must send his/her request to the Registrar's Office; all requests must be signed. Official transcripts are sent directly to an authorized agency for employment or educational institution and bear the official seal of the College, the Registrar's signature, and the date. Students may obtain an unofficial copy of their student transcript for their personal use. This unofficial copy will be stamped "Issued to Student."
Students can request as many transcripts as needed. Transcript requests cost $5.00 each (payable in cash, money order, or check), and payment must accompany the Transcript Request Form or letter. This fee is subject to change without notice. Please allow five business days for processing transcript requests. Transcripts will not be released unless the student has met all outstanding obligations to the college.
Tuition Waivers
Students with approved tuition waivers, tuition remission, or tuition vouchers may register on a space-available basis. All fees must be paid. Tuition waivers, tuition remission, and tuition vouchers do not apply to special programs, seminars, or private instruction administered by the Division of Urban Affairs and Community Services (DUA). Also, certain tuition waivers that apply to the state-supported Day Division do not apply to DUA programs, including those offered during the summer session. For example, the National Guard waiver cannot be applied to DUA programs.
Veterans Tuition Waivers.
Veterans wishing to register at RCC with a tuition waiver must first present their service documentation to the Registrar at Room 202 in the Administration Building. They must be admitted into a degree program and must enroll on a space-available basis, presenting the waiver at that time of registration. Veterans who were not Massachusetts residents at the time of entry into the Armed Services but have resided continuously in Massachusetts for two years prior to application for admission to the College are eligible for the tuition waiver
Withdraw Refund
Students who officially withdraw from a course or from the college early in the semester are eligible for a partial tuition refund based on the college's withdrawal policy and refund schedule (see table below). Fees, including the all-college fee of $41 per credit, are non-refundable.
Failure to attend class does not constitute official withdrawal from a course or from the college.
To officially withdraw from a course, a student must complete a Withdrawal Form (available at the Registrar's Office), which requires the approval and signature of the instructor teaching the class from which the student wishes to withdraw. This form must then be submitted to the Registrar's Office. An instructor's signature is not necessary for withdrawal from a course offered by DUA or if a student is withdrawing from all courses.
