Collections
What should I do when my due balance goes to Collections?
When a due balance hasn’t been paid after a certain amount of time, the student’s account will be placed with an outside Collections Agency. The student can no longer make payments directly to BMCC, and must make arrangements to pay with the specified Collections Agency. Like other Bursar Holds, Collections Holds will prevent a student from registering. Collections Holds are Universal holds, which means they can be viewed by other CUNY colleges and will prevent registration with them as well.
Note that a Bursar In-House Collections (BIH) Hold does not indicate that a student’s account was sent to an outside Collections Agency, and direct payments can still be made to BMCC.
Possible Collections Holds are:
Account Control Technology (BAZ) Hold:
