Personal Check Policy

The Business Office accepts personal checks for the amount of tuition and fees. Students paying by check must provide proper identification. Proper identification includes the following information for the account holder: current address, driver's license number, date of birth, and gender. It is unlawful to issue bad checks. When banks return checks for any reason, the Business Office will notify students by mail to appear in person to make cash payment; the college will also require a $30 returned check fee to clear returned checks.

Not attending classes does not relieve students from the responsibility of paying for bad checks. If the matter is not resolved within 10 days, the Business Office will refer the matter to the Clarke County Magistrate's Court for collection. Students are responsible for all court costs. The Business Office does not accept checks from students who previously issued bad checks to the college. The executive director of registration and records will not release records until students satisfy financial obligations to the college.
