Holds and Collections

 

A hold is a method of communication on the student account to indicate to students that they have an action item to address. Holds may restrict certain activities or be informational in nature. The university may place holds on student accounts for various reasons including financial, advising, informational, disciplinary, etc. The Office of the Bursar can assist with most holds that are financial in nature. Below are common hold types that are placed for financial reasons:

Hold Type Reason Restricted Activities Contact
AR Past Due Balance over $500 Registration,  Diplomas Office of the Bursar
BR Past Due Balance under $500 None Office of the Bursar
FH Returned payments or balance requiring review Registration, Diplomas Office of the Bursar
AM Memo Hold (Informational Account Note) None Office of the Bursar
CO Account status is in default (180 days or more past due) and has been placed with a 3rd party collection agency. Registration,  Diplomas, Payments directly to the university Office of the Bursar
WO Balance has been moved to bad debt due to its age Registration,  Diplomas, Payments in UAOnline Office of the Bursar
PM Parking Fine None Parking Services
HM Health Center Fees None Student Health & Counseling Center
LF Library fine for lost or unreturned items None

All tuition, fees, and other charges for the semester must be paid at the time of registration or by the published payment deadline; refer to the Academic Calendar for more details. Late-starting classes and miscellaneous charges added after the payment deadline should be paid when the charge is incurred and are subject to any subsequent late fee and hold assessments during the term. 

If you have a hold on your account that restricts registration activities and need to drop or withdraw from a course, you may do so by submitting the Student Initiated Drop Form.

Accounts with outstanding balances over 180 days old are in default and are therefore subject to placement with 3rd party collection agencies. UAA uses collection agencies to assist in maintaining low rates of default. Being sent to collections can negatively impact your credit and increase your repayment costs through collection fees; this is agreed to at the time of registration. To avoid this action on your account, please pay your account timely.

Once an account is placed with a 3rd party collection agency, it will not be recalled by the university unless the placement was a result of university error. All balances placed with an agency must be paid directly to the agency; the university is unable to accept payments directly.

UAA uses the following collection agencies:


300 Chatham Ave, Rock Hill, SC 29730
1-800-849-9791


200 CrossKeys Office Park, Fairport, NY 14450
1-800-724-4439

Accounts with outstanding balances over 180 days old are in default and are therefore subject to PFD garnishment under and .

If your account is sent for garnishment, additional details and instructions to appeal the process will be mailed to you at the address used in your PFD application.

Placement with collection agency does not stop the PFD garnishment process. Any amount received from the PFD is reported to the collection agency to adjust the remaining balance.
