Returned Checks / Credit Card Charge-backs

up arrow

When a dishonored check or credit card charge back is returned to the college prior to the last day for tuition refund, as noted in the TCC Catalog, the student will automatically be removed from all classes.  Notice of this action will be sent by U.S. Mail to the student.  To be eligible to attend classes, the student must register again prior to the last day to add or change classes as noted in the TCC Catalog by presentation of a certified check, money order, MasterCard or Visa, or cash.

In addition, a “Prevent Check Presentation” service indicator will be placed on the student account for a minimum of two years.  If the returned check fee and total obligation is not paid in full by the required time the college will seek payment though the State of Virginia Department of Treasury and Collection agencies.

See policy on delinquent accounts (below)

POLICY ON DELINQUENT ACCOUNTS
up arrow

Students who incur a debt (delinquent account) with the college must satisfy that debt to remain in good standing with the college.  The college will follow procedures provided by the State CAPP Manual, the Virginia Community College System’s Policy Manual, and the TCC Financial Services Policy and Procedure Manual in pursuit of all delinquent accounts.

  

When a dishonored check or credit card charge back is returned to the college after the last day for tuition refund, as noted in the TCC Catalog, students will be notified of their financial obligation. A period not to exceed five (5) working days will be allowed to satisfy the financial obligation including a $20.00 bad check charge for dishonored checks.

 

At 30 days past due, all delinquent accounts will be assessed a collection fee equal to 30% of the original debt. External resources include the Virginia Department of Taxation Set-off Debt system and Private Collection Agencies.

Students who maintain a debt to the college will not be permitted to register or to attend classes, and the college will not issue transcripts, certificates, or degrees, until all debts are paid in full to the college.
