Holds on Student Accounts
A hold will be placed on the academic records of residents who are delinquent in their housing payments. A hold prevents residents from registering for the next academic session or receiving a transcript of their academic records. To secure release of the hold, a resident must pay the entire past-due balance.
The form of payment will impact how quickly the hold is released.
- For payments made with cash, a cashier's check, or a money order, the hold will be released the day the payment is received.
- For payments made online, the timeline for releasing the hold on an account is as follows:
- Credit card: one business day after payment is received
- Electronic check (eCheck): three business days after payment is received
- For payments made with a personal check, the hold will be released two weeks after payment is received.
Residents who remain delinquent for more than one quarter place their Housing contract at risk.
