Non-Payment

Students who have not paid their fees or made other payment arrangements (personal, financial aid or sponsor deferments, or sponsor authorizations) by the fee payment deadline may be subject to a late payment fee. It is your responsibility to ensure all financial aid, scholarships, student loans, or sponsor authorizations have been posted to your bursar account prior to the fee payment due date.
Non-attendance
When you register, the University reserves specific class spaces for you and commits resources to provide the instruction you have selected. On your part, you assume the responsibility for paying those course fees or for notifying the University if you decide not to attend. Your registration will not automatically be cancelled for nonpayment of fees. You must either pay your fees or notify us by the first week of classes if you do not intend to return to IUS for the semester. Canceling your registration by the first week of classes releases your class spaces in time to be available to other students. If you decide to cancel your registration during the first week of classes, log on to Onestart. Click on Self Serve and then click on Drop/Add Classes.
Returned Checks
The return by the bank of any dishonored check/item which you have issued: (1) for fees; (2) for previous balance billed; or (3) anywhere on campus will be assessed a twenty dollar ($20.00) or 5% of the face value (whichever is greater) per check service charge. The agreement with our bank is that checks will be sent through twice before they are returned to us as a dishonored check. However, once we have received a dishonored check/item it is considered a returned check regardless of the number of times it has been sent through by our bank. The issuance of a stop payment order through your bank DOES NOT constitute official withdrawal from University classes.
PLEASE NOTE: The Bursar's Office will contact the student for any check/item that was written for tuition fees and was returned by the bank as dishonored. The amount of the dishonored check/item and the returned check service charge will need to be paid with guaranteed funds by a specified date.
Dishonored checks/items for fees other than tuition must be paid with guaranteed funds in the appropriate amount (including the returned check service charge) by the next billing due date. These accounts will also be flagged with "No Checks Accepted".
In either case, once payment has been received for the returned check/item, the "No checks Accepted" flag will be removed however; if we receive two (2) or more returned checks/items on any one account, we will not accept another personal check for a minimum of two (2) years.
