Fees, Tuition, Refunds & Payment

Student Health Fee

$18 Summer 

$21 Fall and Spring 

A mandatory Student Health fee of $21 for Fall and Spring, and $18 for Summer will be assessed for all students each semester or session. This fee is used to support health services for enrolled students. In accordance with State Assembly Bill 982 and Section 76355 of the State Education Code, exemptions are only granted for the following: Students who depend exclusively upon prayer for healing in accordance with the teachings of a bona fide religious sect, denomination, or organization; and students who are attending Las Positas College under an approved apprenticeship training program. Written documentation must be provided to the Dean of Enrollment Services (Admissions & Records), Bldg. 1600, Rm. 1670.

Student Representation Fee

$2 per semester

A Student Representation fee of $2.00 will be assessed of all students each semester or session. This fee is used for any purpose related to representing the views of students with governmental bodies.

In October 2019, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 1504 into law authorizing California community colleges to assess a student representation fee of $2 per semester beginning spring semester 2020.  The student representation fees collected will help establish and support the operation of a statewide community college student organization that empowers students to participate and engage in statewide higher education policy and advocacy activities.  The fees collected will also financially support the advocacy efforts of the Las Positas College Student Government.

To learn more about the student representation fee and the student advocacy efforts being undertaken at the college, students are encouraged to contact the Las Positas College Student Government.

To opt-out of this fee, students must complete the opt-out form by logging on to CLASS-web and submitting the form by the posted deadline in the class schedule.

Transportation Fee

$8/$9 per semester

Students enrolled in 6 or more units will be assessed a $9 transportation fee, while students enrolled in under 6 units will be assessed an $8 fee, excluding the summer semester. This fee allows students to ride the Wheels bus for free, with the correct sticker that corresponds with the correct semester. These stickers are available each semester from our Registration Support/Online Services Center room 1672, in the 1600 building.

Student Activities Fee

$10 per semester

Registered students will be assessed a $10.00 fee each semester, excluding the summer semester, with the option to opt out. Students who pay this fee will receive a LPC Student Activity sticker that provides discounts on student activities and sports events. This fee helps to fund campus activities, Las Positas College Clubs, scholarships, and the Student Life Welcome Center, and other student-related services. These stickers are available each semester from our Registration Support/Online Services Center room 1672, in the 1600 building.
