Understanding Accounts Receivable's hold temporary clearance

Students may be granted temporary clearance of an Accounts Receivable hold under special circumstances.  Students will need to make these arrangements with Accounts Receivable, the Registrar’s Office cannot make changes to these holds.   

Account Receivable holds

Accounts Receivable has a process that runs daily (usually very early in the morning) that applies an AR registration hold to students who are delinquent on their account.  

• AR registration hold codes are B1 and BR: 

• The hold will have generic start and end dates – 1/1/2010 to 12/12/2099. 

Temporary lifting

Under special circumstances Accounts Receivable may grant a temporary clearance of the hold to allow the student to register for classes. 

• Accounts Receivable will either end date or delete the hold on the student’s account. 

• Accounts Receivable will then apply a BC code

  • This code will have a short effective window and the clearance will only be in effect until the agreed upon date. 

  • This hold prevents the daily, automatic process from applying a new AR registration hold on the student’s account if a delinquency exists.  It DOES NOT clear any holds on the student’s account – it only prevents a new hold from being applied.  

Example

This student had a BR registration hold → hold was deleted and BC clearance code was applied 6/24-6/30-2022 → BC clearance expired and the BR hold was reapplied.
