Unpaid tuition bills impacting NJIT

<p>NJIT recently sent out emails that stated that as of March 1st unpaid tuition for spring semester totaled 11 million dollars----seriously impacting their ability to operate.
1,700+ students had not paid 25%-100% of their tuition by week seven of the spring term.</p>

<p>What is going on here? I am sure there were many students having serious financial problems but it also seems like a generation of students who don’t think they have to pay their bills on time.</p>

<p>Most New Jersey state institutions cancel unpaid registrations by week three at the latest.</p>

<p>Not sure how financial departments work. I would guess that there are some students who pay on time and they use their money to operate or they use government money. A lot of students pay late and expect to still be able to study. I guess some schools need to enforce their rules more. Either that or the students and the finance apartment needs to negotiate on something.</p>
