Tuition, Course Fees, and Books
There is no charge to PSEO students for tuition, books, or required course fees for items that do not become the student's property. Textbooks are the property of Riverland and must be returned to the bookstore at the end of the semester.
Textbook Pickup: PSEO textbooks may be picked up starting one week before the semester begins.
-
A class schedule must be presented by the student or parent/guardian and left at the bookstore when picking up textbooks.
-
All books for the semester, including those for late-start classes, must be picked up by the end of the third week of the semester.
-
All textbooks and materials/lab kits must be returned to Riverland at the end of each semester.
Spring 2022 Deadline: All returns must be made by Monday, May 23. Failure to return materials by this date will result in charges.
Note: You cannot pick up books for a new term until all materials from the previous term are returned.
Possible Charges to PSEO Students
- Unreturned Textbooks or Materials: Students must return all textbooks and materials by the due date. Failure to do so will result in being charged full price and a hold will be placed on the college account. Students may opt to purchase their books at 50% of the new price.
- Equipment: If course-required equipment becomes the property of the student (e.g., art supplies), the student is responsible for the cost.
- Placement Testing: Fees for placement testing may be the student’s responsibility.
The PSEO program does not cover general school supplies such as notebooks, pens, or calculators. It also does not cover non-consumable items like instrument rentals or uniforms.
Financial Exclusions: Courses under 1000-level and textbooks not required for a course are not covered by the PSEO program. Students must pay for these out-of-pocket.
