Payment Expectations

Financial aid from the University and other sources is viewed only as supplementary to the efforts of the student and the student's family. Students requesting financial aid are also expected to contribute toward their college expenses through summer or college employment and/or loans in any reasonable combination.

A student will not be allowed to register for any subsequent terms if there is an unpaid balance on the student's account. Semester grades, academic transcripts, and diplomas are withheld from those who have not settled their financial obligations to Manchester University including, if any, collection fees attorney's fees and court costs.

Students are not fully registered, nor will they have the privilege of class attendance, participation in activities, or use of University facilities until their charges are paid or until satisfactory arrangements for payment are made through Student Financial Services. A service charge of 3 percent or $30, whichever is greater, may be added to any unpaid balance on the student account as of the due date. Additional service charges will be added to remaining balances as of the last working day of each month.
