As outlined in the Student Financial Responsibility Agreement (SFRA), student account balances that remain unpaid will be placed initially with ECSI, Northeastern’s pre-collections partner. If a student account balance remains unpaid, the past due student account balance account will then be placed with a collections agency (Reliant or Radius).
