Miscellaneous Adjustments


There may be adjustments made to the student account during the year. These adjustments will be reflected on the monthly statements. The most common adjustments are listed below. 

 

Damage Billing

Damage billing normally refers to any damages that occur in the Residence Halls. The damage may be in the student's individual room or the damage may be in a common area of the Residence Hall. Students could also be found responsible for damages to other buildings or property owned or on the Nichols College campus.

Damages that are not specific to an individual are referred to as "Unassigned Damage" on the statements.

All questions regarding damage billing should be referred to the Residence Life department.

 

Disciplinary Fines

Students may be assessed Disciplinary Fines.

Please refer to the Student Handbook for information regarding disciplinary fines.

 

Library Fees

Students may be charged the replacement cost of books or other materials that are not returned to the library or returned with damages.

 

Parking Tickets

Students may incur Parking Tickets.

Please refer to Public Safety's Parking Rules and Regulations for additional information.

 

Replacement ID Cards

You may be charged a fee for a replacement ID card.

  • Please report lost or stolen ID cards immediately. This wil prevent the unauthorized usage of your ID card.
  • If the card becomes broken do not throw away the pieces. Bring the pieces of the broken card with you when you request a replacement card.  You may not be charged a replacement Id card fee if you can show proof of a damaged card (overuse of the policy may result in fees being charged.)

 

Resident Assistant  (RA) Credits

Resident Assistants receive credit for the residence hall charge, the meal plan charge, and the parking fee.

  • When the Business Office is notified of a student becoming a RA the appropriate room, meal plan, and parking fee credits are placed on the account.
  • If you become a RA mid-semeter or become not a RA mid-semester then the RA credits are pro-rated on  a weekly basis. The Director of Residence Life supplies the Business Office with the pro-rated RA credit amounts.
  • Adding or reversing RA credits from a student's account can have an affect on financial aid eligibilty. Please contact the financial aid department.
