disbursement by the universities.
B. 1. Each university shall establish procedures to collect outstanding
obligations owed by students and former students.
2. Each university shall maintain a system to record all delinquent
financial obligations owed to that university by students and former students.
3. Students with delinquent obligations shall not be allowed to register
for classes, receive cash refunds, or obtain transcripts, diplomas, or
certificate of degree. The university may allow students to register for
classes, obtain transcripts, diplomas, or certificate of degree if the

release of any transcript, diploma, or certificate of degree or to register
for further university classes until such obligation is actually paid.
6. Each university shall include this policy in its bulletin or catalog.
