Paying on Time
To hold your course(s) and avoid being dropped for nonpayment, you must make a payment arrangement within one week of your registration.
Example: Register on Monday, Nov. 6 then payment arrangement would be due by end of the day (11:59 p.m.) on the next Monday, Nov. 13.
If you register less than a week before your course(s) start date, you will not be dropped and will need to drop yourself from the course(s) by the Drop with Refund Deadline (Registration, Refund & Withdrawal Dates).
Students are responsible for all related charges on their account, making payment arrangements, and dropping from course(s) you will not be attending.

Past Due Debt Standard
In compliance with the 110 ILCS 66 Student Debt Assistance Act, the college does not withhold or deny access to transcripts (both official and unofficial), grades, or diplomas if a student owes a debt or has a financial-based obligation with the college.
Holds preventing registration may be applied to student records if there's a past due balance of any amount, if college equipment has not been returned, or if other financial-based obligations have not been met. These holds may be active until the amount owed has been paid, equipment has been returned to the college, or other financial-based obligations have been met according to the college's procedures.
The college may report debt owed to a third-party collection agency if the amount is greater than $100.00 and 60 days has passed from the end of the semester.
