Past Due Student Accounts

Any positive Student Account balance that results after student payment and/or Financial Aid is applied to Tuition and Fees and Other Charges in excess of $1.00 at 12:01 p.m. on the Friday prior to the start of the Semester or Term
(Module) is considered past due. Students with a past due Student Account balance will be contacted by the Bursar/ Business Office during the Add/Drop Period for resolution.

During the Add/Drop Period
Students who elect to add courses during the Add/Drop Period are required to remit payment, or have adequate Financial Aid scheduled, to cover the additional charges by 12:00 p.m. on the last day of the Add/Drop Period. Students who elect to drop courses during the Add/Drop Period are eligible for a Financial Refund of Tuition and Fees in accordance with ADM 5.01 Financial Refunds policy.

After the Add/Drop Period
Students who have a Student Account balance at the end of the Add/Drop Period will be administratively removed from all courses within the current Semester or Term (Module), placed on a Bursar/Business Office hold in the SIS and placed on a Standard Period of Non-Enrollment (SPN) by the Director of Records and Registration on the 11th calendar day of each Semester or Term (Module). At the time that the SPN is effectuated within the SIS, the student will be evaluated for a Financial Refund in accordance with ADM 5.01 Financial Refunds policy. Once a student is administratively removed from all courses within a Semester or Term (Module), the student may not enroll for the duration of the Semester or Term (Module). If, after completion of the Add/Drop Period, a student becomes ineligible for scheduled or disbursed Financial Aid or be subject to a Financial Refund, payment of the resulting positive Student Account balance is due within two (2) business days of the posted transaction. Any positive Student Account balance for a period of 60 calendar days or more, will be submitted to SCHS’ external collection agency and may be subject to additional fees and penalties.
