In accordance with the University's
Rules & Regulations
Assessed tuition fee contributions and accommodation fees are payable
either by Direct Debit instalments or payment of the fees in full at the
commencement of session.
If a Direct Debit claim is dishonoured, letters shall be sent informing
the payer of a re-claim within one month. The letter will also state that if
the second claim is dishonoured, library and computer facilities may be
withdrawn and a notice of eviction may be served in respect of accommodation
fees.
When a claim is dishonoured for a second time, the names of the
defaulters are passed to Information Services for the withdrawal of facilities
and Residential Services for the eviction notices to be served.
Where a student either fails to return a Direct Debit instruction or
cancels an existing one without making suitable arrangements for the payment of
their fees, computer network and library facilities may be withdrawn.
Any student who has outstanding fees shall not be awarded a degree,
diploma, certificate or qualification from the University until the debt is
cleared. Such students shall be prevented from re-enrolling at the institution
and from using any of the University’s facilities.
Students who have not paid fees, charges or any other debts owed to the
University may have their registration cancelled and be excluded from the
University.
Any student withdrawn from University with outstanding fees will be
contacted by letter. If this fails to secure payment they may be referred to
the University’s debt collection agency.
Each student remains individually liable for all fees, debts and other
charges payable to the University on his or her behalf. The fact that a body
representative of students or any other person/body has advised non-payment or
any other course of action that threatens to involve the University in
financial loss does not affect this individual responsibility.
