1. To progress or complete your university education, you must meet all obligations associated with the university, College and course in full. This means you must have done certain things.
2. The obligations include:
3. If you don't meet these obligations, you'll have outstanding liabilities, unless the obligations have been discharged or explicitly excused. This means that they are no longer things you need to do.
Having outstanding liabilities means there's things you need to do before you can complete your course.
You need to pay your fees in full at enrolment, unless:
If that doesn't apply to you, you need to agree to a temporary enrolment agreement. If you don't pay in line with the agreement, you'll be sent 3 reminder letters asking for payment. If you still need to pay after this, then legal action may be taken to recover the debt and you will have outstanding tuition fee liabilities.
If you don't pay your outstanding tuition fees within a reasonable time, we reserve the right to expel you from the university and end the academic contract. You can get advice from the finance department on fees regulations.
Having an outstanding tuition fee liability will not affect assessments, but it will affect your ability to progress to the next year of your course. You won't get your certificate or transcript if you have an outstanding tuition fee liability.
All borrowed books, materials, and equipment must be returned by their due dates. Failure to return items or pay for lost/damaged items will result in library liabilities.
Students living in university accommodation must pay all residence fees according to their contract. Outstanding accommodation charges are considered liabilities.
Students must meet all academic requirements, including submission of coursework and completion of required learning activities, to avoid academic liabilities.
You may be denied access to facilities, resources, or learning activities until liabilities are resolved.
You will not be able to progress to the next year of study or graduate with outstanding liabilities.
Certificates, transcripts, and other official documents will be withheld until all liabilities are cleared.
In severe cases, the university may take legal action to recover debts or enforce contractual obligations.
