What happens if I do not pay my bill?
If the balance due is not paid by the tenth day after the due date, a late fee may be assessed. Late fees are computed by applying the monthly periodic rate of 1% (ANNUAL PERCENTAGE RATE OF 12%) to the balance due. There is a late fee maximum monthly amount of $250, and minimum monthly amount of $4, with a semester maximum of $1,000. In addition to the late fee, the student account is considered past due and a finance hold is placed on the account until the balance is paid in full. Students can always discuss their account and make arrangements with the Student Accounts team by emailing student.account@mitchellhamline.edu.
Students with a past due balance may be subject to any or all of the following:
- A hold will be placed on the account
- Registration will be denied
- Transcript requests may not be processed
- Certification of Graduation sent to the State Board of Law Examiners will be withheld
- Past due accounts assigned to a collection agency will be assessed interest and any other additional collections costs, including attorney fees.
