Delinquent Accounts
Currently enrolled students who are delinquent in repaying a loan, are responsible for a returned check, or have failed to pay appropriately and on time any other debts to San Jacinto College (not including library and traffic fines) will receive warning notices informing them that they must pay their debts by a certain date or be withdrawn from all classes. If they do not pay by that date, the College may withdraw them from all classes, and they may not be reinstated during that term.
Students must pay all debts—including tuition, fees, fines, returned check penalties, and restitution for loss of or damage to college property before they may re-enroll, receive a diploma, or have a request for an official transcript honored.
In the event of failure to pay the Installment Payment Plan at its maturity, and if the same is placed in the hands of an attorney or collection agency, the student shall be responsible for all expenses and expenditures, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs incurred, protecting the College’s interest, rights and remedies on the Installment Payments Plan, Short Term Loan or Returned checks.
The College charges a late fee of $25 for late payment of short-term loans. The College assesses a $30 processing fee for each stopped-payment or returned check. An individual who has had a check returned because of insufficient funds must then pay the College by cash, cashier’s check, or money order.
A student who is in default on a government student loan for attendance at San Jacinto College may not receive an official academic transcript or diploma unless the student has made six consecutive voluntary monthly payments on the defaulted loan.
