Please Note: Students wishing to register for High School Equivalency (HSE) or English as a Second Language (ESL) courses should follow a different process. Click the buttons below for more information on how to register for those programs.

 

Payment Plan

If you are interested in setting up a payment plan for a specific course(s), you must contact Student Financial Services (SFS) at financialservices@sunydutchess.edu. SFS will send you an email that includes information on the specifics of the payment plan, a PDF agreement form to sign, and a link to register.

In order to complete your registration, you must:

  • Download the Payment Plan form and either print to sign or e-sign the document
  • Upload the signed Payment Plan form, along with a copy of your photo ID
  • Make a down payment.

The form must be signed for registration to be considered complete. Signing the Payment Plan form means you are responsible for all tuition and fees associated with the course regardless of whether you complete the course. Once initial registration and payment are complete, you will receive an email with a link to submit future payment installments through the Student Gateway Portal. Be sure to save this information for future payments so that you do not risk being administratively withdrawn from your course.

3rd Party Funding

You must first predetermine your eligibility with the 3rd party funding agency (e.g. Dutchess One Stop or ACCES-VR) and meet whatever requirements they have for selection. Afterwards, please contact the Office of Workforce Development and Continuing Education at workforce@sunydutchess.edu or 845-431-8900. We will discuss the details and expectations of the course(s) you are interested in. If both parties agree the course meets the needs of the student, our office will provide appropriate documentation directly to the agencies, to start the funding approval process. Once funding is approved, we will reach out to you with a special link to register.

Check or Money Order

You must come to campus to the Registrar and Student Financial Service Offices.
