Payment Due Dates, Late Fees and Class Cancellation

Class Cancellation

The University's policy continues to require either payment-in-full or a deferment plan with a 25% payment to indicate your intention to attend the classes on your schedule. Failure to make these financial arrangements by the December due date will result in a cancellation of your classes; thus, creating a need to re-register for classes subject to space availability.

Remember:  there are three payment deadlines that must be met in order to keep your classes:  December 18, January 8, and January 15 by 5:00pm.  If you add any new charges to your student account, (a class, meal plan, parking permit, etc) you must also make a payment before the following due date!  For example, if you add a class on Jaunuary 4,  the payment is still due on January 8 by 5:00pm.

1st Payment  December 18, 2009 by 5:00 pm (for charges assessed on or before December 18)
                    January 8, 2010 by 5:00 pm (for charges assessed December 19 thru January 8)
                    January 15, 2010 by 5:00 pm (for charges assessed January 9 thru January 15)

Deferred Payments

2nd Payment   January 29, 2010 by 5:00 pm
3rd Payment    February 26, 2010 by 5:00 pm
4th Payment    March 26, 2010 by 5:00 pm

If by the December due date, you have made a partial payment which is 25% or more of your account balance, you will be placed on an installment plan and charged a $40.00 non-refundable fee.  If it is not your intention to pay by installments, please make sure that your entire balance is paid by the December due date.

Late Fees

Any Charges unpaid by the statement due date will result in a hold on your account and prevent registration activity.  Late fees in the amount of 1% will be assessed each month on the past due balance. You will be responsible to pay all late fees, collection costs and attorney fees. Delinquent accounts will be sent to a collection agency and will be placed on your credit report. All payments that are returned by the bank are subject to a $20 returned check fee. Returned payments made towards tuition or a past semester charge could result in class cancellation if not paid in a timely manner. If a check is returned for insufficient funds we may present it to the bank electronically.
