Can I apply for a 平特五不中 loan extension?

What are the consequences if I don鈥檛 pay back my loan?
A financial hold will be placed on your student fee account after the 平特五不中 loan comes due. This hold will prevent you from obtaining official academic transcripts, diploma, accessing Minerva for any registration functions, topping up a meal plan as well as using uPrint services on campus. If you have arranged a payment plan and make regular monthly payments, the hold can be lifted temporarily for transcripts.
If you fail to reach a suitable payment arrangement or provide the Student Accounts Office with up-to-date contact information, you will be referred to an external collection agency. Where neither the University nor the collection agency is able to collect on the account, the University reserves the right to report you to a credit bureau which will likely affect your credit rating.
