Accounts at the Central Collection Unit

Uncollected debts will be turned over to the Central Collections Unit (CCU). Accounts transferred to CCU will be reported to the credit bureau. CCU will assess a minimum collection charge of 17% of the outstanding debt, plus attorney and court fees, if applicable. The university and CCU reserve the right to make changes in fees and other charges as may be deemed necessary. These fees are the student's responsibility.

Debts incurred during each semester must be satisfied before registration can be completed for a subsequent semester. UMBC will deny requests for transcripts or diplomas pending clearance of all debts. Any refunds or payments due to students will be applied to existing debts first.
