Adding / Dropping Courses
Dropping a course or changing from credit to audit will not necessarily result in a refund and may result in a reduction or loss of scholarship. To determine if your financial balance may be impacted by a schedule change, please contact the Finance Department.
To make changes to your schedule, you may do so by contacting your Student Services Advisor. Courses dropped after the drop deadline without an approved academic petition to withdraw will be recorded as a W (withdraw).

Payment Options
The balance owed must be paid in full by the Tuition Payment Deadline or the registration may be cancelled. Acceptable forms of payment include Credit Card (credit or debit) or through an ACH (eCheck) transaction.
Credit students may use the Tuition Installment Plan. Please visit the PS website, log in as a student, and click on “Pay Tuition.” You may also go directly into your Blackbaud student portal under Billing and click “Current Bill.”
Tuition Installment Plan:
Enrollment in the Tuition Payment Plan must be established each semester it is used. The Tuition Installment Plan is open from
May 1, 2925 – May 19, 2025.
Tuition Adjustments for Academic Scholarships or Discounts
If you receive an Academic Scholarship or other discount and drop one or more courses before the "no refund" deadline, you will still receive a percentage refund for the courses dropped that corresponds to the refund period in which you dropped the course(s) as outlined in the refund rates and windows chart above. You will still maintain your Academic Scholarship status pending review and with a possible future suspension of the Academic Scholarship in certain circumstances.
