Payment Policies

Fees are due when you register, or you may use the MATC Payment Plan. Your classes will be dropped if you fail to pay. However, if you need to drop a class, it is in your best interest to do so before the start date of class or during the refund period to qualify for a credit to your financial account.

Cash, check, money order, Visa, Master Card, and Discover card are accepted. You may register in person at any of the four MATC campuses. Online registration is available to continuing students only, through INFOnline.

If you have an approved financial aid award, your fees will be deferred until payments are authorized. If you haven't been awarded financial aid and you have registered for classes, review the Financial Aid Payment Option for eligibility criteria to defer tuition payment.

If you choose to enroll in the payment plan option:

  • You must be registered for three or more credits.
  • Complete and sign a payment plan agreement form.
  • Pay the $30 participation fee.

    The total cost of each course is determined by adding the program fee (calculated by multiplying the tuition per-credit rate times the credit value of the course), plus the materials fee (charge for consumable supplies - used in teaching the course), plus an Academic Support Center fee, and a per-credit student fee. Out-of-state tuition is an additional fee paid by nonresidents of Wisconsin or foreign nationals over and above the course fee.

    Adult High School Fees

    The Adult High School Fee is determined by student fee and materials fee calculation per credit - the total tuition is approximately $47.38 - $53.13. The credits shown in class schedules and catalogs for Adult High School courses are Adult High School credits and are not the basis for computing nonresident tuition and student fees. The equated credits assigned to each Adult High School course for fee purposes by the Wisconsin Technical College System Board are vocational credits, and these are the figures used in computing nonresident tuition and student fees.

    The credit conversion for 700-799 courses is as follows:

    Adult High School Credits

    4/5 (.8)

    3/5 (.6)

    2/5 (.4)

    Basic Education and English as a Second Language Fees

    These courses are exempt from the program fee by state statute, but the materials fee is charged when applicable.

    Personal Enrichment Course Fees

    These fees are established by the MATC Board.  The class periods of instruction for 600-series courses have been equated to credits for fee purposes, and in addition a materials fee is charged.
