PAYING YOUR ECC BILLS
Balance must be paid in full, covered by financial aid by the first day of class, or be enrolled in the Automated Recurring Payment Plan (form required) for a $25 fee.
Students are responsible for notifying the College of any address changes or course cancellations or withdrawals (these changes must be submitted in writing).
After 30 days all accounts with a balance will be assessed a $75 late fee. This fee will be automatically added to a student's bill.
HOW TO PAY YOUR BILL:
You can make checks payable to IVCCD and include your Student ID number on your check. Mail it to the attention of the ECC Cashier. Do not send in your billing statement, as you will need this to purchase your books at the bookstore.
You may call (641) 648-8507 and pay over the phone, or stop by the Cashier window in Student Services (Gentle Student Center, 2nd floor). We accept cash, checks, money orders, Visa, Mastercard, Discover, and American Express.

LATE FEES:
A $75 late payment fee will be assessed to cover the costs of collecting unpaid balances. This fee will be automatically added to your bill after the third payment plan due date.
REFUNDS:
Refunds are based on the date the Add/Drop Form is completed, signed, and returned to the ECC Registrar’s Office, not the last date of class attendance. Fees for a full-term course are non-refundable after the first week of classes. Half-term and special length courses will be prorated.

*0 - 6% equates to the first week of courses for a full-term Fall/Spring course

Financial Aid Refund Dates
If you are eligible, refund checks are available starting February 7, 2025.
Refund checks are issued weekly throughout the semester. If you have a refund, you will receive an email on a Thursday. You can pick up your check on the following Friday in the Gentle Student Center (Level 2; Room 225-Business Office), please bring your ID with you. Without an ID, we cannot issue the refund check. If you want it mailed, please respond to the email with your mailing address.
OTHER COSTS:
The student agrees to pay all attorney fees and other reasonable collection costs and charges necessary for the collection of any amount not paid when due.
IVCCD may, at its option, declare any unpaid balance to be in default and may demand immediate payment of the entire unpaid balance, including charges, interest, late charges, and collection costs if the student does not make a scheduled payment when due.
