Late Payments
Student account balances not resolved by their due date, will be flagged with a financial hold. This financial hold will prevent students from registering for classes, changing their course schedule, participating in senior week activities, the graduation ceremony and from obtaining diplomas and/or transcripts.
Accounts with unresolved balances are subject to late payment fees of $100.00.
If a balance remains unpaid the account will be assigned to the Bentley University Collection Department. If an acceptable payment arrangement cannot be reached, the account will be assigned to a collection agency. There are several consequences that accompany that action:
- The account will be reported in a default/collection agency status to the credit bureau. This may prevent the student from obtaining credit in the future.
- The student will be assessed collection fees between 25% and 50% and possible legal fees in addition to the outstanding balance owed to Bentley University.
- Any future classes that the student plans on taking at Bentley University must be prepaid (in full) via certified funds.
