LEGAL REQUIREMENTS FOR STUDENTS ATTENDING PRAIRIE VIEW A&M UNIVERSITY
When the Texas Legislature established the installment payment plan for the student tuition and fees, it also established penalties for the nonpayment of fees. The law states:
“A student who fails to make full payment of tuition and fees, including any incidental fees, by the due date may be prohibited from registering for classes until full payment is made. A student who fails to make payment prior to the end of the semester may be denied credit for the work done that semester.”
