Geri,
This is a program that a Registrar and I ran for years at a Community
College in California. The fee structure was small, but the student
population was 25,000 a semester.
The foundation is enrollment management; not fee gathering (although
that is a by-product)
We had enrollment and periodically drew up groups of students and ran
them through a drop-for-nonpayment process. (based on an aging)
The process has a number of ways that the student can get under the
'limbo bar' (e.g. pending financial aid, third party payment, payment
plan, paid almost all, etc.)
In this manner, the seats were filled with students that had made a
commitment to the institution; ahead of the first day of class.
The system worked really well and it helped with efficiencies all the
way around.

Subject: bursar-l: Registration policies
I need your help again - I know, what else is newJ What is your policy
on the following scenario - a student owes for the current term and
needs to register for the next term - do you
1 - allow them to register and drop at a later date if they don't pay -
if you drop is it a week before school starts, at drop add - when?
2 - allow them to register and don't care if they owe you money
3 - allow them to register after making some type of payment
arrangements to pay the past due balance with the Bursar's office with
the potential of dropping them at a later date if they don't follow
those arrangements
4 - other
Thank you so much!!!
