  • Outstanding Student / Faculty / Staff Account Balances
  • Federal Perkins Student Loans
  • Cleveland Marshall Bar Loans
  • Calvitti Loans
  • Shell Loans
  • Reminger Loans

If your student account is in a delinquent or defaulted status, a hold is placed on your account. A financial hold will block registration, the release of transcripts and the issuance of a diploma. These requests will be denied until the delinquency or default has been resolved. Outstanding financial obligations include parking fines, unpaid parking tickets, unreturned books to the library, unpaid tuition and fees, unpaid Title IV returns and incomplete Exit Loan interviews.

All account balances not paid in full when due are the sole responsibility of the student. The student is responsible for all costs incurred by the University to collect such debt. This may include, but is not limited to, late fees, collection costs, litigation / attorney's fees, court costs and interest. Our Collections staff is available to discuss your financial difficulties and recommend a repayment agreement.
