Drop for Non-Payment
The Community College of Aurora (CCA) monitors and drops students from classes due to non-payment of tuition and fees in order to help students avoid incurring extraneous tuition bills and to reduce the number of tuition bills needing to go to collections. CCA runs weekly monitoring reports and notifies students that they need to make payment arrangements for outstanding tuition and fees or be dropped from their class(es) due to non-payment. Monitoring and notifications begin at least two weeks before classes start and continue weekly until all late-starting classes are captured.
Monitoring, Student Notification and Drops
The monitoring, student notification and processing of drops for non-payment are managed by the Fiscal Operations Office as follows:
- Each Monday the Fiscal Operations Office runs the Drop for Non-Payment report in Audit mode to generate a list of students still needing to make payment arrangements.
- Automated calls and e-mails are sent to those students through Blackboard Connect reminding them of the need to make a payment or set up a FACTS payment plan.
- Students who have not made a payment or set up a payment plan by 6 pm on the published semester deadline will be dropped from their class(es).
- Once the semester payment deadline has passed, payment is required within one business day.
