Fee Payment Methods & Schedule of Fees

Plans & Policies

 

Checks returned for insufficient funds or due to a stop payment will be considered as nonpayment if the initial payment is for tuition. Therefore, a late payment fee of $100.00 will be added to the balance if applicable.


The returned check service fee is as follows:

  • $25.00 if the check is $0.01 to $50.00,
  • $30.00 if the check is $50.01 to $300.00,
  • $40.00 if the check is over $300.01 to $350.00, and
  • $40.00 or 5%, whichever is greater, on checks over $350.00.

 
Notification will be given to the student and/or maker via certified mail to the address on the check or to the last known address. After notification that a check has been returned, redemption, including the service charge, must be made within seven (7) working days. Florida A&M University forwards all returned checks to the State Attorney’s Office for redemption and prosecution after collection efforts are exhausted.  In addition, collection costs will be added if the account is sent to an external collection agency.
 
A “Negative Service Indicator” is placed on the account of all students who have returned checks with the University. The student will not be permitted to pay University charges with a personal check in the future.

 

All private scholarships should be mailed to Student Financial Services, 1735 Wahnish Way, Suite 103, Tallahassee FL 32307.  Please include your name and student ID number on all checks and correspondence.  An electronic copy of the check will be sent to Financial Aid for posting with other financial aid awards.

Authorized Collections Sites are required to make deposits directly or indirectly into the Board of Trustees approved bank accounts with Wells Fargo Bank.
