Fees

You can attach fees such as a course fee or materials fee if required. Or you can attach fees when you create the course section.

Select Pay to enroll to indicate that students must pay for the course before they enroll in it, such as for Continuing Education enrollment and payment flows. Here's what happens in self-service:

  • If you select this option and attach a fee for the course or course section, the fee shows in self-service pages.

  • If you select this option and don't attach a fee for the course or scheduled course, Free shows in self-service pages.

  • If you don't select this option, no fee information shows in self-service pages. An example is a course that's part of a traditional enrollment flow.
