Down Payment

How do I know I won't be dropped?

When you’ve made payment arrangements, you will see a green checkmark in eServices under Bills and Payment. This tells Normandale that you plan to attend your classes and pay your bill. If you see a RED stop sign, you have not yet made payment arrangements. 

If I don't plan on attending, what should I do?

If you change your mind and don’t plan to take classes, you must drop them or you will be billed for them. You may drop them in eServices or in person at the Registration & Records Office.

Dropping your classes prior to the start of the term allows another student to add the class(es) to their schedule. You will want to drop by the deadline to avoid being charged for your classes. See the dropping your classes page.
