Fees
and Temporary Permit
A $30.00 class enrollment fee for
individuals affiliated with NMSU and a $45.00 fee for individuals attending the class for
personal reasons will be assessed. Individuals taking the class for personal reasons must
pay this fee at least a week in advance of the class. A $10.00 fee is required for issuing
a university vehicle permit to individuals with DDC certificate obtained outside NMSU
EH&S A temporary permit is available to employees to
the next available class but they must register and attend before the permit expires. |
Important
 | Prospective drivers of University
vehicles must have a valid drivers license and will undergo a motor vehicle records
check. State statute requires individuals to obtain a NM drivers license within 30 days of
establishing residence in NM. Before a NMSU permit is issued, out-of-state license holders must provide a certified copy of their driving history.
(Note EH&S
can now check most state driving records for an additional charge). Three moving violations or a DUI/DWI convictions
within the past three years will require special NMSU review and may deny (or revoke) an
individuals driving permit. |
 | Classes often fill early, please
request registration at least two weeks in advance to
ensure a reservation. Individuals taking class for personal reasons may
register on-line but registration is not complete until the enrollment fee has been paid
(or a university account is provided). |
 | Reservations may be cancelled if the
enrollment fee is not paid at least a week prior to the class date. Departments will
be billed for registered individuals who fail to attend and neglect to cancel and
reschedule prior to the course. |
 | Course registrants must attend the
entire DDC course in order to receive a certificate of completion. |
 |
Please Note
 |
Individuals must bring a current drivers license and a pencil to class |
 |
Check class location (above) & find campus location (map & visitor parking). |
