"Let Us Help: Your outstanding balance is eligible for a payment plan.Your outstanding balance of $51.50 is eligible for a payment plan.
Your past due balance must be paid prior to registration or the release of transcripts. A
payment plan will help you to avoid additional finance charges and collection fees. If
you do not pay your overdue account or set up a payment plan, your account will be
placed with an external collection agency and you will be responsible for all collection
fees. This will increase your outstanding balance by at least 30%.
To begin your monthly payment plan, please make your first payment of $17.17 by
01/18/2019 to activate your 3-month payment plan.
If you have any questions, please contact the Student Accounts Office;
