If a check payment is returned, Student Financial Services will assess a $25 returned check fee.

If two or more returned check payments occur, returned check fees will be assessed, a financial hold may be placed on the student’s account, and an email will be sent to the student’s Husky email account. The email will contain a notification of the returned check fee assessment, the reason for the returned payment, and possible future actions.

These future actions may include the following:

  • The student may lose their ability to make a payment by e-check for up to one year.
  • If the student’s account balance continues to be unpaid, Student Financial Services may assign the balance to one of Northeastern University’s collections partners.
