Instructional Materials Fee*
In accordance with Title 5, Section 59404(b) and Title
IV, State Center Community College District may require
students to provide certain instructional and other materials.
These may include, but are not limited to, textbooks, tools,
equipment, and clothing (e.g. uniforms).
Such material may be required if:
1. The materials are used in the production of
a course-related project or “end project” that
has a continuing value to the students
outside of the classroom setting; or
2. The materials required for the class have
continuing value to the students outside the
classroom setting.
Students who wish to purchase instructional materials on
their own must secure advance written approval of the
instructor and provide such written approval to the Business
Services Office for a waiver of the material fee.
Health Fee*
The health fee provides students with a variety of health
care services. In accordance with Board policy, students are
required to pay a health fee, regardless of the units taken.
For on-campus classes the health fee is $19 for each semester
(fall and spring terms) and $16 for the summer term. For off-
campus and online classes students are required to pay an $11
health fee each term (fall, spring, and summer). For students
enrolled at both on-campus and off-campus sites, the health
fee is charged at the on-campus rate. On-campus sites include
Fresno City College, Reedley College, Madera Community
College Center, and Clovis Community College. This fee
is not waived by the Board of Governor’s Fee Waiver. The
use of on-campus labs or the on-campus tutorial center will
result in an on-campus health fee.
In accordance with California Educational Code Section
76355, an exemption/waiver from the health fee is available
to the following students:
• Students who depend exclusively upon prayer for healing
in accordance with the teachings of a bona fide
religious sect, denomination, or organization.
• Students who are attending a community college under
an approved apprenticeship training program.
The Health Fee Waiver Form is available at the following
locations and online: Reedley College, Business Services
Office and Madera Community College Center/Oakhurst
Community College Center, Admissions and Records Offices.
The form must be turned in at the time fees are paid.
