Financial Obligation
Each student is responsible for fulfilling financial obligations to Northwestern University. If a student's account becomes overdue, a late fee must be paid. In addition, students are liable for any costs associated with the collection of unpaid bills, including but not limited to collection agency costs, court costs, and legal fees. A student’s account may also be reported to a credit bureau. The director of student accounts may cancel or prevent the registration of students whose accounts are past due. Students whose university bills are past due may not be given a diploma or transcript.
