Return Check Policy The college imposes a service charge for checks that are returned. The returned check fee of $20.00 went into effect on July 17, 2002. In addition to the fee, for a period of one year from the date of payment for the returned check, we will not accept a check as payment on the student's account for which the check was originally written. The only forms of payment accepted during the penalty year are cash, certified funds, and credit card.
We do not redeposit returned checks. When the college receives a returned check, the check writer is notified by certified mail and given 10 calendar days to settle the debt by cash, certified funds, or credit card. Fifteen days from the letter, the check will be turned over for collections through Craven County District Court or other means available to the College.
If you know that a check is going to be returned and you come by the Business Office and pay the check before the bank returns it, we will waive the fee and penalty. The check will be mailed to you once it is received from the bank.
Check Distribution
- A valid picture ID is required to pick up checks (drivers license, military ID, student ID, employment ID, etc.).
- Checks are released to the payee only (not to the spouse, child, parent, friend, etc. unless they possess a current power of attorney for the payee).
- All financial aid distributions (PELL, SEOG, grants and scholarships) will be mailed directly to the student. Students should verify that their address in the system is accurate so there is no delay in receiving their funds.
- Student loan checks can be picked up at the cashier window during normal hours of operation.
- Travel advance checks may be picked up at the cashier window during normal hours of operation. Advance checks are not mailed. Travel reimbursement and other reimbursement checks for employees are held at the cashier window for a period of one week for pickup unless specifically requested to be mailed. Reimbursements will be held for one week after notification to the employee then mailed if not picked up.
- Paychecks and direct deposit notifications are available for pickup at the cashier window on payday (the last working day of the month) between 7:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. Checks and notifications not picked up by 3 p.m. will be mailed that day.
