CTE Dual Credit Payments
This website is for high school students who have completed eligible
PNWCC CTE Dual Credit class(es) with college credit awarded by one of our five partner colleges (listed above).
Fees due to PNWCC – for college credit earned through the CTE Dual Credit program facilitated by
PNWCC and from any of our partner colleges (BC, CC, EdC, LWTech, SCC) – are accepted on this site.
Please Note: This payment site is not for CTE Dual Credit courses
offered by Everett Community College.
Payments made here will not cover CTE Dual Credit classes
being awarded credit from Everett Community College.
This payment site was created to allow users to indicate the total amount
they want to pay, instead of just one set amount as found on our main site.
Those who need to make a payment of more or less than the standard $50
fee should make their payment here. If you are paying for a course that
you have or will complete in the current school year – do not pay here – please pay your fee at our
main payment site .
Do not make payments on this site without first contacting PNWCC staff for permission.
Payments for classes taken in prior school years are allowed on this website,
BUT do not make a payment until your request has been reviewed and approved
by a PNWCC team member. Again, BEFORE making a payment,
especially If you completed your courses in a prior school year, please
Email our team for assistance.
BEFORE making payment:
- Email PNWCC to request prior year credit
- Verify that class has been added to your SERS registration history
- Confirm amount you owe to PNWCC
- You will need your SERS ID number (TPN-NN-NNNN)
- See below for instructions on locating SERS ID
Please DO NOT submit payment(s) for a prior year class unless you have been authorized to do so by PNWCC staff.
This website is part of Bellevue College’s (BC) larger financial website, but all payments made are deposited to PNWCC’s account.
PNWCC’s main office is located on the Bellevue College campus, and BC operates as PNWCC’s fiscal agent.
Even though your credit card or bank statement may indicate a payment to Bellevue College,
all payments made through this website are payable explicitly to the
PNW College Credit consortium.
