TUITION AND FEES
Kingdom College aims to offer an education to everyone who qualifies for admission, regardless of his or her financial readiness for college. It is for this reason that Kingdom College has sought to create affordability for its students. Kingdom College is primarily tuition-funded. All expenses for each semester/term must be paid at the beginning of the semester. Any student with an outstanding balance at the end of a semester will be denied the opportunity to receive his/her grades, receive a transcript, or register for a future semester, unless arrangements are made with the Finance Office. Below is the breakdown of expenses per semester for students at Kingdom College.
“Students utilizing VA education benefits shall not be charged a penalty, including assessment of late fees, denial of access to classes, libraries, or other institutional facilities, or be required to borrow additional funds because of the individual’s inability to meet their financial obligations due to the delayed disbursement of a payment to be provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs”.

ACADEMIC ADVISORS
When students enroll in Kingdom College, they are assigned an advisor. This person is an instructor, usually a Department Chairperson, who teaches classes in the student’s field of study. The role of an advisor is to assist students in appropriate course selection and provide general guidance in the student’s field of study. Program maps help in this process. The student is responsible for pursuing academic advisement after enrollment. Even though the advisor provides guidance, the student is solely responsible for meeting all graduation requirements. The Registrar will also assist in this process to help ensure the student takes the correct courses for their program of study.

ACCUPLACER Testing Administration
This testing situation allows students to be accurately placed in the appropriate math and English classes. The personnel responsible for this situation have been trained and certified to administer the ACCUPLACER Test. The Director of Enrollment and Student Services and the Human Resources Director are both able to administer this test.
Assistance for Students with Disabilities
Students requiring accommodations or modifications for a disability should inform the instructor at the close of the first class meeting or as soon as possible. The instructor will refer you to the Kingdom College disability officer to document your disability, determine eligibility for accommodations under the ADAAA/Section 504, and request a Faculty Accommodation Form. Disability accommodations or status will not be indicated on academic transcripts. In order to receive accommodations in a class, students with sensory, learning, psychological, physical, or medical disabilities must provide their instructor with a Faculty Accommodation Form to sign. Students must return the signed form to the Office of Student Services. A new form must be requested each semester. Students with a history of a disability perceived as having a disability, or with a current disability, who do not wish to use academic accommodations are also strongly encouraged to register with Student Services and to request a Faculty Accommodation Form each semester. For further information, please contact the Office of Student Services.
The Director of Enrollment and Student Services manages the process of assessing the needs of students with disabilities.
Student Complaint Procedure
- Identify the issue: The student recognizes a problem (academic, administrative, or personal) and determines whether it qualifies as a formal complaint.
- Informal resolution attempt: The student first discusses the issue directly with the person involved (e.g., professor, staff member) or their academic advisor. Kingdom College encourages resolving matters informally before escalating.
- File a formal complaint: If unresolved, the student submits a written complaint to the designated office (often Student Services, Program Department, or Financial Services). This requires:
- A description of the issue
- Dates and evidence (emails, assignments, policies
- Desired resolution
- Administrative review: The complaint is reviewed by the appropriate officer or administrator. They may request additional documentation or schedule a meeting with the student.
- Investigation process: Kingdom College researches by interviewing involved parties, reviewing records, and assessing whether policies were not followed or violated.
- Decision and outcome: A written decision is issued, outlining findings and any corrective actions (e.g., grade change, staff training, policy adjustment).
- Appeal process: If the student disagrees, they can appeal to a higher authority (Director of Human Resources, Chief Academic Officer or President). Appeals usually require new evidence or proof of procedural error.
- Final resolution: The institution communicates the final decision. At this stage, the complaint process is considered closed.
Mental Health Counseling Referrals
The Director of Enrollment and Student Services will assist in cases where a student needs mental health services or when a professor has referred a student to the Director of Enrollment who may need mental health assistance. If the student needs mental health services, the Director of Enrollment and Student Services will provide a list of local mental health service providers to the student.
Administrative Services
The Director of Enrollment and Student Services will assist and participate in the Administrative Council for Kingdom College. This role allows the Director of Enrollment and Student Services to help in the decision-making and assessment of the Enrollment and Student Services Office and its role in the overall working of Kingdom College and its future growth.
Assistance with Technology for Students
The Director of Enrollment and Student Services will assist students if any questions or concerns come up about technology at any of the teaching sites. If necessary, the contractors for IT may be called if the technology issue requires expertise in the breakdown of the WIFI or internet, as well as the Student Information System where students upload assignments and grades are posted.
