drop self-service

Students may be dropped for non-payment if a payment is returned or fails. If this happens, a notification will be sent via email and/or the postal service for any payment that is returned or denied for any reason. A return/denied payment charge of $35 will be applied to your account. Payment must be received within eight business days from the date of the notification. Payment options include paying in person with cash, cashier’s check, money order, credit/debit card, or paying in full via accessECC.

If a second payment is denied or returned, ECC may deny eligibility to participate in the payment plan. If any payment is returned because of a stopped payment, you will no longer use the payment plan option. If you have written a check to ECC that comes back for any reason, ECC will no longer accept any checks for your account. If you have questions, contact Student Accounts at studentaccounts@elgin.edu.
