Students or former students who have been provided with written notice that they have failed to pay a proper financial obligation may have grades, diplomas, and registration privileges withheld until such time as the obligation is satisfied.

The District must provide a student or former student with written notice that he/she/they have failed to pay a financial obligation due to the District before the District commences any activity to collect the debt. 

The District may not withhold grades or transcripts for a student or former student as a consequence of the student’s outstanding financial obligation to the District.  The District may not withhold registration privileges for a student or former student as a consequence of defaulting on a loan or loans under the Federal Family Education Loan Program only.  The District may withhold diplomas as a consequence for a student or former student of defaulting on a loan.
