PAYMENT OF BILLS
Assumption College follows a policy
of sending bills directly to the students. Bills for each semester
will be issued one month prior to the beginning of each semester
and are payable to the Finance Office at least two weeks prior
to the commencement of classes on the date indicated on each
statement rendered. Any account balance remaining after the
due date will be subject to a late payment fee of $100.00.
Students will not be considered officially
registered and, therefore, will not be issued class schedules
or officially listed in the class roster until their bill
is paid. Payments are applied to a student's bill in the order
of past due balance, fines, interest, fees including room
and board, miscellaneous charges, and finally tuition.
Specific fees are often assessed after the
student's class schedule is fixed and are payable on receipt
of a statement from the Finance Office.
The college does not offer a deferred payment
plan. Students wishing to use an installment plan must
make private arrangements with Tuition Pay which offers
this type of plan on a fee basis. Information on this plan
is available from the Finance Office or online at www.tuitionpayenroll.com/assumption
Financial aid, loans, payments from
deferred payment plans, etc., must be received by the payment
due date each semester. Late payments will be subject to a late payment fee of $100.00.

Failure to Pay College Financial Obligations
Enrolled students may be suspended from
the College for past due obligations, an action which includes
removal of courses and prevention from course enrollment and
campus housing for future terms. Students whose accounts are
not in good standing may not be allowed to participate in
the housing lottery. Current and former students will have
a financial hold placed on their "official" academic transcript.
Past due obligations may be referred to a collection agency
at the discretion of the college. In such cases, the student
will be liable for any collection and legal fees which may
total 50% of the outstanding bill.

of right. Also, no refund is made for delay in attending class
