Responsibility for Tuition Debt

Students are responsible for debts resulting from registration for courses.  Registrations will not be canceled for non-payment of tuition or non-attendance.  Therefore, failure to pay for courses or attend courses will not release students from the responsibility for these charges.  Students may contact Customer Relations (757-683-3030 or via e-mail at tuition@odu.edu).  Distance Learning Students should contact their Site Staff or the Office of Distance Learning for
