At 黑料社, we believe it鈥檚 important for students to be informed and empowered about their financial responsibilities. As part of our commitment to transparency and your success, you will be asked to review and accept the Student Financial Responsibility Agreement (SFRA) each year.

This agreement is designed to help you understand your financial obligations when enrolling in classes and outlines the college鈥檚 policies.

What is the SFRA?

The Student Financial Responsibility Agreement (SFRA) is a required acknowledgment that students must complete once per year in ctcLink before registering for classes. By signing the SFRA, students agree to take responsibility for paying tuition, fees, and other charges related to their enrollment at 黑料社.

 


Why Is It Important?

Students must accept the SFRA to:

  • Proceed with registration in ctcLink
  • Understand their financial obligations to the college
  • Acknowledge awareness of payment deadlines, refund policies, and potential late fees

IMPORTANT: Students cannot register for classes until the SFRA is completed.


When Will This Start?

黑料社 students will be required to complete the SFRA starting with Spring Quarter 2026 registration. The SFRA will be visible to students in ctcLink beginning January 12, 2026 and students should complete the SFRA prior to the start of priority registration on February 9, 2026 to ensure they are able to register for classes on time. Students only need to complete the agreement once per academic year (Summer through Spring)
