Beginning October 1, 2020, York College of Pennsylvania will accept spring tuition deposits ($100.00) for our returning students.  All full-time and part-time students are required to pay this deposit prior to registering for the spring 2021 semester.  If enrolling in both the winter session and the spring semester, only one deposit is needed.  Please see below instructions explaining how to pay a deposit online. 

Additionally, students who are currently not living on campus but would like to do so should contact our Residence Life Office at residencelife@ycp.edu or 717.815.1281.  A $100.00 housing deposit will need to be paid if approved to live on campus.

Overpayment of Account/Loan Refunds

York College will issue to students a refund of financial aid or other overpayment received that is in excess of charges posted only after those funds have been received.

Student Loans:
A refund check will be processed as loan money is received and a credit balance exists. The earliest date that a refund check is available is the first day of the semester. Checks are held in the Business Office for student pick-up until after the drop/add period at which time the checks will be mailed to the permanent address. Photo identification is required to pick up a refund check in the Business Office.

Parent PLUS Loans:
Refunds will be processed after the drop/add period. The check will be issued in the name of the parent and mailed to the permanent address.

Parents may submit written authorization to release the credit to the student. The check will then be issued in the student's name. Parents can complete and return the 
PLUS Loan Refund Release Form or send an email to businessoffice@ycp.edu to provide authorization.

Higher Education Services (HES) Payment Plan:
Payments from the HES payment plan are credited to a student account as an estimated payment until the 5th monthly payment is received by the college. At that time accounts will be reviewed for overpayments, and any credit balance will be refunded to the student.

Overpayments & Miscellaneous Credits:
Refund checks will be issued for all credits over $5.00. Checks will be mailed to the permanent legal address on file in the Records Office if they are not picked up within two weeks of issue.

Tuition and Deposit Holds

Holds can be viewed online through YCPWeb by selecting Student Services, Student Records, and View Holds.  For information or assistance with holds, please contact the originating office directly.  The Business Office is the originator of the following financial related holds:

Tuition Hold
A tuition hold on your account is a result of an outstanding balance on your student account.  An outstanding balance can result from unpaid tuition, fees, room, and board or other miscellaneous charges (i.e. parking violation charges, health center charges, ID card replacement charges, etc.) A delinquent payment to the Higher Education Services, Inc. (HES) payment plan will also result in a tuition hold. 

A tuition hold will stop the release of grades and transcripts and prevent registration for upcoming semesters.  It will also prevent scheduling changes prior to the start of the semester and during the drop/add period.

When an outstanding student account balance is paid in full, the tuition hold will be removed from your account.  Click for instructions on How to Pay Your eBill Online.  For online payments, a tuition hold will be removed the next business day or you can contact the Business Office to request the hold be removed immediately.  Payments can also be made in the Business Office via cash or check.

A delinquent HES account balance must be paid directly to HES.  HES payment information is not reported to YCP on a daily basis.  When the delinquent amount is paid in full, please contact the Business Office to request a review of your account to determine if the tuition hold can be removed.

Deposit Hold
A deposit hold on your account is a reminder that a tuition deposit must be paid prior to registering for an upcoming semester. 

A deposit hold for a particular semester will only prevent registration for that semester.  For example, a Deposit Hold Fall will not prevent registration for the summer sessions, and a Deposit Hold Summer will not prevent registration for the fall semester. 

When a semester deposit is paid, the deposit hold will be immediately removed from your account.  Click for instructions on How to Pay Deposits for Tuition and Housing Online. Deposits can also be paid in the Business Office via cash or check.
