Student Accounts: Past Due Accounts

A student whose account is past due $25.00 or more may not make changes to his or her current registration or register for future semesters. The hold will remain on the student account until the balance is paid in full. Payment made by personal or electronic check will not release this hold until two weeks after the receipt date.

Official academic transcripts will be withheld for failure to pay tuition, for default on an education debt or failure to repay an education grant overpayment. A single unofficial copy of the academic transcript will be provided in cases involving bankruptcy. Unofficial transcripts will be stamped with the words "UNOFFICIAL" and may note unpaid financial obligations to the University.

Upon failure to make payment when due, the University of Portland, or its assignee may, at its option declare the entire unpaid balance immediately due and payable, whatever the original scheduled due dates. If placed for collection, students will be responsible for collections costs (which could be up to fifty percent of the balance due) and attorney's fees (including attorney's fees upon appeal or in any bankruptcy proceedings, including advisory proceedings and motion for relief), whether or not a law suit is filed, incurred in the University of Portland's efforts to have your balance paid in full.
