Are online agreements with a checkbox enforcable contracts?

How can a college charge me full tuition plus more money for apparently enrolling in 2 classes. I did check 2 boxes for 2 classes and that is it. It said on the webpage that checking those boxes does not reserve your seat and I also recieved 3-4 envelopes full of forms to fill out before being enrolled. I never filled out any form, never attended school, and never signed my name on anything. Then about 2 months later I get a bill for nearly $1,300. Now the state is going to take the money from me one way or another. What are my options? Can I fight this?
I admit to registering for those 2 classes, but we both know there is more to the college enrollment process than just going online and simply checking 2 boxes. I can understand some sort of fee but to charge me full tuition plus an additional $150-$200 for “technology fee’s, student association fee’s, student medical fee’s” and a few other fee’s is crazy. Now if I dont pay $1500 by the end of the month the state gets to have their way with my pay checks until it is paid off and I feel completley helpless. Any suggestions?
