Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I make a payment and what types of payment are accepted?
A: Log on to your myBHCC account to pay in full or create a payment plan for the fall or spring or summer session. The College accepts online payments by personal check or from a checking/savings account or with VISA, Mastercard, Discover or American Express. There is an administrative processing fee for debit/credit card payments. Cash is not accepted.
Q: Will my courses be dropped if I still owe money for the student comprehensive health insurance plan?
A: No. However, if you fail to waive the health insurance you will be enrolled in the school’s plan and you will be responsible for the cost on your bill. Your account must be settled and fully paid, including any outstanding health insurance balance. If you already have health insurance, be sure to waive the student comprehensive health insurance plan at the time of registration. Visit bhcc.edu/healthinsurance for more information.
Q: I applied for financial aid, but my award has not come through yet. Will my classes be dropped?
A: No, we will put a temporary hold on your courses if you have a pending financial aid award. All financial aid awards must be received by the due date published by the Financial Aid office to avoid being dropped for non-payment.
Q: My account was paid, but I added another course so I now have a balance. Will all of my courses be dropped?
A: No, you will not be dropped from your other courses for non-payment if you add a new course. Be sure to pay for the new course according to the table above to ensure that you keep your seat in the newly-added course.
