Step 3: Paying for Your Courses

Payment is due at the time of enrollment. Please keep this in mind when registering. The fastest and most secure way to register and pay for classes is by using ISIS Student Self-Service, https://isis.jhu.edu. The Billing section on ISIS allows you to view your student account balance, review your statement history, make online tuition and fee payments, and print your student bill or receipt. Also, you can allow others access to your billing account enabling you to set up authorized payers to view/pay the account. After you have set up users it is your responsibility to share the assigned login and password with additional viewers. This feature is most useful for employer tuition payments.

If registering by mail or fax, please note your method of payment on the AAP Registration form and sign it prior to submission. Credit Card information can not be written or submitted using this form. Please submit your credit card payment using ISIS.

Using ISIS you can pay for your classes with the following methods:

Check:

Make the check payable to The Johns Hopkins University for the total amount due. We encourage you to register conveniently and securely online.

Returned and Post Dated Checks
A check not honored by the bank is subject to a $25 returned check fee. The University reserves the right to require a cashier or certified check on future payments. The University does not accept post-dated checks.

Also, we encourage you to pay by check conveniently and securely using ISIS. The processing time for e-check payments is approximately three business days.

Credit Card:

Registering online allows you to pay immediately and securely via credit card. We accept the following credit card payment methods: MasterCard, Visa, American Express, and Discover.

Employer Tuition Remission:

A copy of the contract must be sent to the Advanced Academic Programs registration office in Washington, DC. Students whose tuition is paid by employer contract should begin processing requests with their employers well before registration deadlines to ensure that documents are ready at the time of registration. If you have a question about timelines, please contact the AAP Enrollment Office.

Employer Tuition Reimbursement:

Many employers provide tuition reimbursement for their employees; that is, the employer reimburses the employee for the cost of the course once the course has been completed. In this case, students must pay for the course at the time of registration with their own funds and request reimbursement from the employer at the appropriate time. Employer reimbursement is not a method of payment for registration.

Financial Aid:

Students requesting financial aid must assume responsibility for payment if the aid is not finalized. Financial aid information and instructions can be found at advanced.jhu.edu/admissions/financial-aid, or students can call 410-516-8028 or contact online at www.jhu.edu/finaid.

JHU Tuition Remission:

Students receiving tuition remission benefits from Johns Hopkins University should read the contract carefully. Call the Center for Training and Education at 443-997-6890 to address any questions. Registration is complete when the Enrollment Services Office receives a completed Tuition Remission Benefit Application. The completed form may be faxed to 202-452-1970. Please note that students are financially responsible for dropped courses paid for with tuition remission and any associated fees.

Refund Policy

Students may elect to withdraw from one or more course(s) for a variety of reasons. Refunds apply only to the tuition portion of a student’s charges, excluding the field trip, lab, or technical fees, and are calculated from the date the student’s written request for withdrawal is received in the Advanced Academic Programs Enrollment Office, The Johns Hopkins Bernstein Offit Building, 1717 Massachusetts Ave., N.W., Suite 101, Washington, D.C. 20036-2001. The Add/Drop form can be found at the current student forms page. You may fax the form to 202-452-1970, mail to Johns Hopkins University, ATTN: Add/Drop, 1717 Massachusetts Ave NW, Suite 101, Washington, DC 20009, or drop it off in person at our enrollment office at 1717 Massachusetts Ave NW, Suite 101. Telephone and email withdrawals are not accepted. Instructors or advisors never authorize or process withdrawals, though it is certainly courteous to inform the instructor of the intent to withdraw. Refunds are not granted to students suspended or dismissed for disciplinary reasons.

Students who drop a course before or on the deadline for a 75% refund will not have that course listed on their official transcript. Students who drop a course anytime after the deadline for a 75% refund (receiving a 50% refund or less) will receive a "W" on their official transcript, indicating withdrawal from a course.

You may visit ISIS Self-Service https://isis.jhu.edu to confirm your enrollment and to add or drop courses. You man also choose to submit the course add/drop form and fax to (202)452-1970. For confirmation of fax receipt, call (202)452-1940.

Refunds are made in accordance with the schedule listed below and are updated online here each semester/term. If you withdraw after your registration has been processed, the refund to which you are entitled depends on the date your written request is received by the Advanced Academic Programs Enrollment office. Courses offered at locations other than Homewood, Montgomery, Washington, or online (e.g., London, England) may be subject to a separate refund policy.
