Out-of State resident: $320.70 per semester credit hour

(Tuition rates are subject to change upon approval of the State Board for Community Colleges of Virginia. Please check this site often for the most up to date information.)

A student's residence status is determined by Section 23-7.4 of the Code of Virginia.

Domicile Exceptions - Certain students who are in the United States on a non-immigrant visa are eligible to establish domicile in the state of Virginia, and are, therefore, eligible for the in-state tuition rate. The student must provide necessary immigration and state financial documentation to the Central Admissions and Records Office.

To appeal an Out-of State status you must file an Application for Re-classification of Student's Domicile Status with the Central Admissions and Records Office.

If you have questions, please email Admissions or call 804-523-5029.

Payment by Third Party
Requirement for all third party sponsorships: Students who anticipate an employer or other third-party sponsor, including external scholarships, to be responsible for tuition expenses should contact the Central Business Office at 523-5186 prior to registration to determine documents required of the sponsor. Once registered, students must contact a campus Business Office each semester they wish to utilize their external sponsorship and have their tuition and fees charged to their participating sponsor, which includes tuition and fee charges that should be paid from the Virginia College Savings Plan program or a student’s private scholarship account currently on file at the college. Students, whose sponsorship letters do not authorize payment for the entire cost of tuition and fees, are responsible for and must pay any and all balances prior to college payment deadlines before the sponsorship is applied against the student account. Failure to remit payment in a timely manner may result in the removal of enrollment of any and/or all courses.

Automatic Payment Plan

>> Download the Nelnet e-Cashier brochure
To help meet students’ educational expenses, JSRCC provides access to the Nelnet e-Cashier Payment Plan.  Nelnet Business Solutions (NBS) is an outside company that offers the e-Cashier Automatic Payment Plan to students at J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College. >> Read the FAQ

For a non-refundable NBS enrollment fee, students may pay tuition in defined monthly installments through NBS.  There is no credit check or interest charged to participate in the payment plan.  Payments are made automatically from the bank account (checking or savings) or credit card you specify.  There is an additional fee assessed for using a credit card, and NBS only accepts American Express, Discover, or MasterCard.

Students who register in classes with J. Sargeant Reynolds Community College have the option to apply for the Nelnet e-Cashier payment plan through My JSRCC November 7-January 13, 2012.  Students must enroll by 3 PM on a JSRCC payment due date or the student will be dropped from classes for non-payment.

Note: Deadlines to enroll in e-Cashier that are listed on the brochure are NOT the same as J. Sargeant Reynolds tuition payment due dates.  J. Sargeant Reynolds deadlines take priority.  Please go to the Tuition Payment Due Dates section for a listing of the college’s deadlines.

Once logged into My JSRCC and registered you can apply for the e-Cashier payment plan thru the VCCS SIS Self Service page by clicking on the Apply Nelnet Payment Plan link.  Access is also available thru the Account Inquiry or Make a Payment links. Participation in the payment plan may be accomplished only through this website; payment plan application by mail or telephone is not available.

Students who choose to enroll in a Nelnet payment plan will have contract balances automatically initiated for the total amount of his/her current tuition and fees. Financial Aid cannot be factored in with the payment plan. Students with third-party authorizations must first contact the Business Office so student account balances can be adjusted prior to initiating the payment plan contract.

Spring 2012 payment plan contract balances will periodically be adjusted up or down to match changes in tuition and fee balances until January 18, 2012. Adding or dropping classes will change your NBS initial contract balance and your installment payments will be adjusted accordingly.

Students adding second session classes after January 18, 2012 must pay JSRCC directly for additional balances dues by college payment deadlines to prevent removal of enrollment. Please go to the Academic Calendars page for college registration dates and payment deadlines. Students who wish to have their payment plan contract balances decreased after the last day allowed to decrease or terminate contracts must request the adjustment by contacting the Business Office.

Students who wish to terminate their e-Cashier agreement must contact the JSRCC Central Business Office by e-mail (ecashier@reynolds.edu) or written correspondence by fax (804) 371-3631.  For terminations to take effect before a scheduled payment date with e-Cashier, written request must be received two (2) days before the scheduled payment date.  Students who default on e-Cashier payments or fees at any time can be terminated by NBS and classes will be dropped.


Frequently Asked Questions about e-Cashier
[back to top]
If you need additional you may call the Central Business Office at 804-523-5186.

  • I don’t have a checking account, savings account, or credit card.  Can I still enroll in the program?

No.  In order to enroll in the e-Cashier Payment Plan, you must have a bank account or credit card.

  • I only have a Visa.  Can I still enroll in e-Cashier?

No.  Nelnet Business Solutions (NBS) currently accepts American Express, Discover, or MasterCard only.

  • Is there an additional fee for using a credit card instead of a bank account?

Yes.  NBS charges an additional fee for using a credit card.

  • How much is the fee that is charged for using a credit card?

The amount of the fee is based upon the amount of tuition.

  • When will the enrollment fee be taken out of my account?

The enrollment fee payment is taken out immediately.

  • When is the down payment taken from my bank account or charged to my credit card?

The down payment is taken out immediately.

  • I enrolled in e-Cashier and the down payment has been taken out but when I check my student account online it still shows a balance, why?

JSRCC and NBS computer systems are separate; therefore even though payments are being taken out by NBS it will still show a balance on the school’s system.  Once we receive funds from NBS near the end of the semester we can post those payments to your JSRCC college account.  If you were current on all your payments with Nelnet this should zero out your balance with the school.

  • I am adding or dropping a class.  Will my payment plan agreement automatically be adjusted?

Spring 2012 payment plan contract balances will be adjusted accordingly through January 18, 2012.  Increases and decreases in your SIS student account balance will initiate an adjustment to take place on your total Nelnet contract, which in turn will affect the amount of your payment installments.

From  August 27 - November 1 only decreases and terminations are allowed on Nelnet contracts.  Students must contact the Business Office to have any adjustments made during this period.

  • I need to change the bank account that the payments are being taken out of, can you change this?

No.  You will need to contact NBS for this at 1-800-609-8056

  • I want to change the payment date, can you do this?

No.  NBS has strictly established payments dates on the 20th of each month, unless the 20th falls on a weekend or holiday.  If so, then the payment will be attempted on the next business day.

  • How do I terminate my Nelnet contract?

Students who wish to terminate their e-Cashier contract must contact the Business Office by e-mail (ecashier@reynolds.edu) or written correspondence to fax 804-371-3631.  For terminations to take effect before a scheduled payment date with e-Cashier, written request must be received two (2) days before the scheduled payment date.  Students who default on e-Cashier payments or fees at any time can be terminated by NBS and classes will be dropped.

  • I have dropped my classes, when do I get my refund?

Refunds are not issued until 75 days after the last day to drop with a refund. 



TUITION REFUNDS

    Students must drop classes they do not wish to take by submitting an Add/Drop form to a Success Center by the published drop deadline. Refunds are processed after the Last Day to Drop with Refund and take approximately three weeks to be received. All tuition refunds are issued to students in the form of a check from the Treasurer of the Commonwealth of Virginia, with the exception of those refunds for students whose payments were made via Reynolds Online. These refunds will be credited to the debit or credit card from which the tuition was paid.

    Refunds for drops for special session courses (shorter or longer course duration and/or offered at times other than the published semester begin date) will be permitted through the first 15% of the course length. Students should verify the refund deadline for such courses at a Success Center and ensure their mailing address on file with the college is accurate. Refund processing times for special session courses take approximately four weeks to be received.
