Dishonored Check Policy

Checks returned for insufficient funds or due to a stop payment will be considered as nonpayment if the initial payment is for tuition. Therefore, a late payment fee of $100.00 will be added to the balance if applicable.

The returned check service fee is as follows:

$25.00 if the check is $0.01 to $50.00,
$30.00 if the check is $50.01 to $300.00,
$40.00 if the check is over $300.01 to $350.00, and
$40.00 or 5%, whichever is greater, on checks over $350.00.

Notification will be given to the student and/or maker via certified mail to the address on the check or to the last known address. After notification that a check has been returned, redemption including the service charge must be made within seven (7) working days. Florida A&M University forwards all returned checks to the State Attorney’s Office for redemption and prosecution after collection efforts are exhausted. In addition, collection costs will be added if the account is sent to an external collection agency.

A "Negative Service Indicator" is placed on the account of all students who have returned checks with the University. The student will not be permitted to pay University charges with a personal check in the future.
