The policy for late payment applies to tuition, fees, and any other cost owed to RSA:

- Students with outstanding accounts will not be allowed to register in subsequent terms.
- Students with outstanding accounts will not be allowed to attend the study trip.
- Official acknowledgment of programme completion is withheld until outstanding fees and other accounts with Rosebud Centre of the Arts are paid in full.
- Transcripts and evaluations will not be released until outstanding accounts have been paid in full.
PAYMENT DEFERRAL
A student who presents evidence of a sponsorship, scholarship, or student loan is eligible for payment deferment. Evidence must be presented each term.
Failure to provide this confirmation on or before the payment deadline (each term) may result in the cancellation of the student’s registration. If granted a deferral, interest will still be charged.
A partial deferral may occur if monthly post-dated cheques are presented on or before the deadline date for tuition and fee payments for each term. If granted a partial deferral, interest will still be charged.
