Hello List,
I have a question from my VP for Finance, how do you handle student bad debts?
By student bad debt receivables I am including the following:
Returned Checks
Tuition Deferments
Short Term Book Loans
Student Pell Grant/FSEOG Grant Liabilities (due to never attending a class,
changes to audit, etc. We now assign these to the USDE)
Tuition and Bookstore charges due to the Federal Return of Title IV Funds
The specific questions asked were:
1. How long do you try to collect the accounts before sending them to
collection?
2. How long do you leave them with collection?
3. Do you authorize the collection agency to sue?
4. At what point do you write-off the student account, and
what is the estimated amount to be written-off this year (2000-2001)?
Thank you,
Anders
the write-off

Anders M. Nilsen, MBA
