The Customer Account Services department will start actively attempting to collect payment from students when their account becomes sixty days past due. Delinquent students will be sent a series of communications requesting prompt payment and informing the student that the account may be referred to a collection agency. It is the goal of the Customer Account Services department to assist students in resolving this outstanding obligation in the most efficient means possible so that they may successfully fulfill their future academic endeavors.

Students that do not resolve their outstanding balance owed at NDSU by exercising one of the options listed above will be referred to a collection agency approximately 9-12 months after delinquency. This referral may impact the student’s credit rating. All payments made after referral must be directed to the collection agency. Collection agency contact information 可能会发现 in the 持有 section of the Student Center tab in 校园连接. Official transcripts and diplomas will be held for a minimum of fourteen days after payment in full is received.
In the event that a student wishes to return to NDSU after paying the outstanding balance to the collection agency, they will be required to pay upfront the estimated cost of the next semester. Pending financial aid funds may be taken into consideration, but all tasks required to receive financial aid (e.g., FAFSA complete, loans accepted) must be completed beforehand.
提醒! In addition to making financial arrangements, students must apply for readmission by the posted deadline: 申请重新入学的学生.
