Returned Check Policy
Checks returned unpaid to the College by a financial institution, no matter the amount or reason for the return, will automatically incur a $20 reprocessing fee in addition to the original obligation. John Jay College will attempt to notify the student or former student in an effort to recollect the payment. Full payment must be made within two weeks of the rejection date, otherwise failure to meet this deadline will result in an additional $15 Late Payment Fee. The Bursar's Office will no longer accept personal checks in payment of tuition or fees -- even if the student wishes to use someone else’s check. A student who fails to remake the payment in a timely manner will be denied access to their records and will be prevented from registering in the future.
