After 30 days late, items will be declared lost and you will be charged a replacement and processing fee. This fee will be payable at the Admissions and Records Office. Until fees are paid, you will be blocked from registering for classes, dropping or adding classes, requesting transcripts, and getting financial aid.

  • Damage

 Returned items are checked for damage. If damage is severe, you will be charged replacement and processing fees.

In some cases fees for lost and damage due to fire, flood, or theft may be waived with a copy of police, fire, or insurance report.

Quarter Breaks

  •  You can check out items over the breaks with verification that you are registered for classes next quarter.
