EXPENSES

Students registering for courses offered by York Technical College must pay the full tuition charge for those courses by the established payment deadline. Tuition fees for students are determined by the legal county/state of residence as determined by the information on the York Technical College Application for Admission and other data submitted to the college. Tuition fees are not subject to adjustment due to a change in residence which occurs after the initial date of registration for that semester.
