COLLECTION POLICY
1) Students of families that are not current in tuition will not be permitted to take exams, which are held in January and June.
2) Seniors will not receive a Cap and Gown or Diploma until all tuition has been paid in full.
3) If tuition is owed for students who leave our schools, TRANSCRIPTS WILL NOT BE FORWARDED.
We will make every effort to work with our parents if a sincere attempt to keep tuition accounts current is apparent.
Communication and honesty is vital to the integrity of the financial relationship between Grand Rapids Catholic Secondary Schools and our parents.
