Notice To All Students

• You are responsible to cancel your registration by the posted due dates in the course schedule or to pay any balance due. Non-attendance or non-payment is not a cancellation and you will be held responsible to pay any amount owed.
• A late fee will be charged if your account has any unpaid charges not covered by a deferment. For example:
• You didn't sign up for enough money to be taken from your bank account by the NBS payment plan.
• Your bank account was NSF at the time NBS attempted to take your payment.
• You made changes to your registration resulting in additional charges that were not covered by one of the 7 options.
• Your financial aid or third party award was insufficient to cover your tuition, leaving an unpaid balance.
• You had loans available but didn't sign the promissory note to activate the loan, leaving an unpaid balance.
• You registered for classes, didn't pay by the due date, were deregistered, and want to be registered again.
• Re-registering after being deregistered - When you were taken out of your classes, there was a hold put on your account. You may re-register by first coming to the Tuition Office. We will lift the hold if you can provide secured funds, adequate financial aid, or authorization papers.
• A hold on your account will be applied for any unpaid balance.
