Payment of Fees/Promise to Pay
By agreeing to the terms outlined in the Registration Agreement, and therefore acknowledging this Student Financial Responsibility Agreement (“Agreement”), I
understand that when my student register(s) for any class at, or receive any service from, Manhattan Area Technical College (“MATC” or “College”), I accept full
responsibility for the payment of tuition, fees, and other College charges assessed as a result of my students registration, and/or receipt of services. I understand that,
regardless of any expected reliance on any third-party resources, including but not limited to financial aid, family resources, employer reimbursement, government
assistance, or any other external resources, I remain personally and solely responsible for paying any and all outstanding balances.
I consent to receive all financial notifications from MATC via electronic means. This includes receiving all communications via the institution’s primary method of
contact, which is my student manhattantech.edu email account, or by phone/text to any active phone number provided by me in my student record, including using
automated telephone dialing equipment or artificial or pre-recorded voice or text messages.
Communications may include, but are not limited to, notices of billing, statement changes, payment plan changes, payment due notifications, late payment notices,
account holds, collections, legislative notice requirements, tax document availability, and other student business related notices.
My student will specifically consent to receive my year-end 1098T tax form electronically via my student account portal at MATC Online, unless I have taken the
appropriate measures to opt-out of electronic delivery. To opt out, I must send written notice to:
Manhattan Area Technical College
Attn: Student Account Specialist
3136 Dickens Ave
Manhattan, KS 66503
Should my student choose to opt out of electronic delivery, written notice must include my student ID, specific request to opt-out of the electronic delivery option for my
1098T document, and verification of my current address on file with the institution. If my address is incorrect, I understand my student must update their address
information via MATC Online student portal prior to submitting this request.
My students request must be received by the MATC Business Office no later than October 31st of the tax year for which I wish to elect paper delivery.
If my student does not fulfill the opt-out requirements by the stated deadline, he/she will be able to view and print a copy of their 1098T by accessing my MATC Online
student portal. Although the duration of this agreement is indefinite, my student may withdraw their consent by following the instructions above. Confirmation of my
consent withdrawal will be sent to my student manhattantech.edu email account.
Bills/Statements
After my student register(s), I understand that their bill/statement will be made available online, and my student will be sent notification of its availability to
their College (manhattantech.edu) e-mail address. If they do not receive an e-mail notification, I agree that my student is still responsible for the required
payment.
Payment Due Date
I understand there are scheduled due dates for tuition and fees for each semester. Due dates can be found online at https://manhattantech.edu/events. I
understand that if I have entered into a payment plan agreement, I am responsible for any adjustment in due dates.
Assessment of Finance Charges
I understand MATC will assess a monthly finance charge of $25.00 on any outstanding balance owed to the College if I fail to pay in full by the due date, or
fail to maintain timely payment plan payments.
Tuition Adjustments
I understand and agree that if my student drops or withdraw from some or all classes for which they register, they will be responsible for paying all, or a portion
of, tuition and fees in accordance with the published tuition refund schedule at MATC. I have read the terms and conditions of the published tuition refund
schedule and understand those terms are incorporated herein by reference. I further understand that my students failure to attend class or receive a bill does not
absolve me of my financial responsibility as described above.
Delinquent Account/Collections
Financial Hold: I understand and agree that, if I fail to pay my student(s) account balance or any monies due and owing to the College by the scheduled due date, the
College will place a financial hold on my student(s) account, preventing them from registering for future classes, requesting transcripts, or receiving their diploma.
Collection Agency Fees: I understand and accept that if I fail to pay my student(s) account bill or any monies due and owing to MATC by the scheduled due date, and
fail to make acceptable payment arrangements to bring their account current, the College may refer my delinquent account to a collection agency. I further understand
that I am responsible for paying the collection agency fee which may be based on a percentage at a maximum of 35% of my delinquent account, together with all costs
and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, necessary for the collection of my delinquent account. I also understand that my delinquent account may be reported
to one or more of the national credit bureaus.
Electronic Communication: I authorize MATC and its agents, representatives, attorneys, and contractors (including collection agencies) to contact me at the current or
any future mobile phone number, home phone number and email address I provide, including by way of automated telephone dialing equipment, or artificial or
prerecorded voice or text messages, for purposes of collecting any portion of my student financial obligation which is past due.
