In addition to planning for your spring semester, advising is a great time to touch base with your advisor, share what's going well, and discuss any challenges you may be facing. If you're finding certain areas difficult, consider reaching out for support through the learning labs at your community college.

Did You Receive a Bill from the Community College?

Sometimes the community colleges will send a bill, or you may see a statement with a balance owed when you log into your community college student account - it may even show past due. You do not need to pay this bill.

Billing is reconciled between the community college and CEC each semester.

Should you ever exceed your funds for the school year, CEC will bill you directly, after the school year ends (Summer 2025).

If you have any questions or are wondering if you need to pay a bill you received from the community college, please reach out to your advisor to confirm, before you pay. *Unless you are taking additional classes as self-pay.
