Departments within the University of South Carolina have the option to transfer delinquent, uncollectible accounts to Student Collections. Once University accounts are transferred to the Student Collections department, payments must be made to our department.
Non-payment will result in the following university actions:
- assessment of late fees and/or interest penalties
- placement of holds on all university services including
- transcripts
- diploma
- access to register for subsequent semesters
- placement of the account with a collection agency
If you are unable to pay your debt in full, our department can work out payment arrangements to avoid placement of the debt with a collection agency. However, accounts with Student Collections must be paid in full for registration, transcript, or diploma hold release. Contact us at (803) 777-4077 or burscoll@mailbox.sc.edu for assistance.
Payments
If you have a hold from Student Collections, payment may be made by cash, cashier check or money order. Please indicate the account holder name and the last 4 digits of the SSN.
