Penalties for Late Payment
Non-Deferred
For the Degree Programs, Massage Therapy Program, and Ayurveda Program, a penalty will be
assessed for all payments of tuition and fees received after the third business day unless One-
Stop has approved an authorized deferment. For The Integrated Science Program, a 10%
penalty will be assessed for all payments of tuition and fees received after the Thursday
following the first weekend of class. Failure to pay all debts to the University by the due date
will result in a delinquent account and possible suspension. A student will not be allowed to
register for a subsequent trimester if there are any outstanding balances. Any student with a
delinquent account will have all of his/her records encumbered until the account is cleared. If
this account is sent to a collection agency, any fees or expenses incurred as a result will be the
sole responsibility of the student. The schedule of penalties for late payment of tuition and fees
for the Degree Programs is as follows:
(Maximum of 10%)
First 2 weeks of classes -$50
Third week of classes-$100
Fourth week of classes-$200
Thereafter 10% * A three day grace period is allowed without penalty.
Notice
SCU may report information about student accounts to credit bureaus. Late payments, missed
payments or other defaults on student accounts may be reflected in a credit report. If payment for
tuition and fees is not received, the student may be withdrawn from their program and the
official transcripts withheld.
