Failure to make payment arrangements on the balance owed will result in the students’ classes being canceled.

    2. Student records will be encumbered and a $25 fee assessed;
    3. The student will not be able to re-register for the Spring 2000 semester;
    4. The student will not be able to register at any Purdue University campus or receive official or unofficial academic transcripts until the balance owed is paid in full;
