The total bill is due on the due date noted on your first E-Bill unless you have enrolled in an approved payment plan (see details below for payment plan options).
If payment is not received by the due date, you may be subject to late fees, course cancellations, as well as having a hold placed on your account. All unpaid accounts are forwarded to 3rd party collection agencies for further collections activities.
