A student enrolled in the Nelnet program will be subject to all policies of BHCLR related to
payment of financial obligations. Should a student’s Nelnet account be put on hold or terminated
for any reason, the student will have 5 business days from the date of official notification of their
account status, to either reinstate the Nelnet payments or pay their account balance in full. If the
student does not meet this obligation within the 5 business days allowed, financial suspension
will occur from all school activities on the sixth business day. If the situation persists, the student
will be administratively withdrawn at 5:00 pm on the tenth business day and must apply for
reentry if eligible.

st
For example: A student’s Nelnet account is put on hold on Monday, August 1 . If no
arrangement has been made the student will be placed on financial suspension the
th
following Monday, August 8 . If no arrangement has been made by 5:00 pm Monday,
th
August 15 , then student will be administratively withdrawn.

Should an insufficient fund situation occur, a second attempt at redrafting the payment will be
th
made on the 20 of the month. Should the second attempt fail, financial suspension will occur
and the Nelnet agreement will be placed on hold. For the second unsuccessful attempt the
business office will add a $20.00 fee to the student’s account. All
Nelnet late charges will also apply.
