  • Obligation for Payment & Outstanding Balances Policies

    Obligation for Payment:

    Registering for classes constitutes a legal financial obligation. You will be held liable if you do not follow proper procedures to change or cancel your registration through the Office of Registrar Services at registrarataju.edu. By registering for classes you agree to be held responsible for all tuition and fees. This includes (but is not limited to) payments denied by student loan lenders, agencies of the United States government and foreign government agencies.

    Tuition and fees for all students are due, in full, by the settlement deadline outlined in your statement by AJU’s Accounting Department. Failure to make payments of any indebtedness to AJU may be considered sufficient cause to:

    1) suspend AJU services and privileges

    2) withhold your diploma or certificate

    3) drop you from any preregistered courses for the upcoming semester

    4) withdraw you from the institution

    5) assign you to a collection agency

    6) report you to a credit bureau

    This policy will also be equally enforced against debts discharged through bankruptcy.  

    Outstanding Balances and Student Registration

    If you have registered for classes during any term, you are agreeing to be held responsible for all tuition, fees, and any associated costs as a result of registration or receipt of services. All students must have any delinquent financial obligations cleared within seven (7) days prior to the start of the new semester for permittance to remain enrolled in classes. Your registration may be revoked if you have any outstanding financial obligations to AJU at the start of a new semester. Failure to register into the new semester could result in being Withdrawn from the institution. Please contact the Accounting Department to understand your payment options. AJU reserves the right to enforce such policies.
