Delinquent Accounts are student accounts that have a balance remaining after they are no longer currently enrolled. Bills are due the first day of class for the current term. If bills are unpaid the account becomes delinquent.
All delinquent accounts must be paid in full or enrolled in the 5 payment, 10 payment, 20 payment, 30 payment or 40 payment extended payment plan to avoid collections.
Student Financial Counseling is a resource Colorado Mesa University offers to students who have a delinquent account. Student Financial Counseling can assist with alternative payment arrangements and options, and answer any questions you have.
