Grades are withheld when a student has not met the minimum payment requirement for enrollment, and/or has an unpaid balance owing to the University in excess of $10 (subject to change). In addition, students who fail to return books to the Library, wireless NetReady cards or ResNet equipment to CCS - Computing and Communications Services, or any other borrowed property, will have their grades withheld. Students are responsible for all books, materials, etc. borrowed against their library cards, unless a loss or a theft has been previously reported.

Students who have grade withholds, receive a Withhold Notice in lieu of their graduation award at the relevant convocation ceremony. Documents will be released when the Withhold has been cleared.
