Additional Information:
- Darcie Daniel is your Clark College point of contact for military tuition assistance programs. She is located in BRD 163, Accounting Services in the Baird Administration Building. You may contact her by phone, 360-992-2286, or email ddaniel@clark.edu.
- Your Tuition Assistance Authorization does not cover college fees. Fees are embedded in the Tuition Rate Schedule: https://www.clark.edu/enroll/registration/tuition-fees/index.php After we receive your TA authorization, we calculate your costs along with payment information and due date.
- If your service branch denies payment of the authorized TA funds due to grades, non-attendance or any other situation, you are responsible for the costs and you must make payment to Clark College. Failure to pay these costs will restrict further enrollment and access to academic records.
- If you change your major, you must provide a revised Education plan to your military base contact and Darcie Daniel.
- Please notify Darcie Daniel of your enrollment every quarter and your intent with utilizing tuition assistance.
- Please ensure that you are notifying Darcy Daniel prior to the tuition due date to ensure that she places a protective hold on your account so that you are not dropped for non-payment.
- You must submit a Graduation Application one quarter before completing your certificate or degree requirements and notify Darcy Daniel of your anticipated graduation date.
