Late Registration
College of DuPage students may register without a permit through the second
calendar day following the first class meeting (16-Week classes only). As
an example, if the class starts on a Monday (M/W/F), a student can register
through Tuesday for this class; if the class starts on Tuesday (T/R), a student
can register through Wednesday for this class. Exceptions to this rule are
courses with required safety training, licensure, accreditation, or mandatory
seat hours for legal reasons. The waitlist function will remain active through
the late (2-day) registration period. Students are expected to take full
responsibility for making up any missed coursework associated with a
late registration. Once the late registration period has passed, students are
required to obtain a permit from the instructor. For 16-Week classes only,
a $10 late registration fee will be charged for each class
registered after
the second calendar day following the first class meeting
.
12-Week and 8-Week classes registered
on or after the day the class(es)
begins are considered late
and students are required to obtain a permit
from the instructor. A $10 late registration fee will be charged for each class
registered late, on or after its start date.
Students may request an E-permit to enroll late through myACCESS for
12-Week and 8-Week classes only, through the 10th instructional day. Go to
myaccess.cod.edu and log-in with your username and password. Under the
Registration section in the student menu, select Request a Permit. Permits are
valid for one day after issuance date.
Waitlist for Closed Classes
A waitlist is available to students for credit course sections. When a student
attempts to register for a closed class, the student will be notified that a waitlist
is available. The student will have the opportunity to be added to the waitlist
for only one section per course. If a seat becomes available, the student will
be notified via College of DuPage email (dupage.edu) and have 24 hours
to register for the open seat. If the student does not register for the open seat
within 24 hours of notification, the student will be removed from the waitlist
and the next student on the waitlist will be notified. If the student misses the
24-hour opportunity to register and wants to be placed back on the waitlist,
the student will be placed at the bottom of the waitlist. The waitlist function
will be turned off at midnight prior to the start of the 12-Week and 8-Week
sessions. The waitlist function will remain active through the late (2-day)
registration period for the 16-Week session.

percent of the time for the respective academic session. Summer session

Payment Plans
College of DuPage offers affordable payment plans for students. The payment
plans provide the student the ability to make payments throughout the
semester. If you are eligible for financial aid (i.e. grants, loans, or Veteran
Benefits) you may qualify for a deferred payment plan. The deferred payment
plan scheduled payments usually do not begin until seven weeks after the
start of the semester to allow time for posting of all financial aid to a student’s
account. All students who enroll in the active or deferred payment plan will
have payments automatically charged to a checking/savings account or debit/
credit card. A late fee will be charged for all missed payments.
Active Payment Plan

Deferred Payment Plan for qualified students

The $5.00 will be refunded if financial aid covers 100% of the billed amount.
For students whose aid does not cover 100% of the billed amount, the $5.00
will be applied to the outstanding balance.
• A set-up fee of $25.00 will be charged if the first scheduled payment is
processed.
• Payment plans are for one term only.
• Payments are automatic.
Failure to make the payments as agreed upon may result in your classes being
