Prorate Course Fees Page
Use this page to prorate course fees. Your building administrator has defined how fees for courses should be prorated on the Fees Building Configuration Page.
Fees may be prorated for courses in the following circumstances:
- The course has been added or dropped for the student since the last calculation date. The discount percentage that is applied to a fee is based on the prorating discounts set up in the Fees Building Configuration.
- The student has been resolved out of one or more marking periods of the course. The discount percentage that is applied is calculated by dividing the number of marking periods that the student was resolved out of by the number of marking periods of the course. For example, if the student is resolved out of one marking period of a four marking period course, the discount percentage is calculated as 1 / 4 which is equal to 25%. In the Fees Building Configuration, your administrator determined whether course fees should be prorated if students are resolved into marking periods of a course.
- The course is no longer in the student's schedule. The fees will be prorated 100%.
- The student dropped the course before the course started. The fees will be prorated 100%. In this scenario, the drop date is before the first day of the course so the prorate schedules do not apply. The schedules define how the fee should be prorated after the course has started.
