Procedure 2320
Returned Checks
When the college receives a non-sufficient funds check from the bank, the following steps
will be taken.
- 1. The check will be sent back to the bank for collection.
- 2. The college has adopted the procedures laid out in the Bad Check Manual issued by the
State of Arizona. As the State of Arizona has declared writing a non-sufficient funds check
to be a misdemeanor, the check will be turned over to the County Attorney for collection.
- 3. The individual will be invoiced by the college for the non-sufficient funds check
including the processing fees, as set by the Board-approved schedule of fees.
- 4. The individual/student account will be placed on delinquency status until the account
is settled.
- 5. If the amount due is not paid in 20 days, the account will be turned over to a collection
agency.
