Administrative Fees and Fines

WHAT ARE ADMINISTRATIVE FEES AND FINES?
Fees and fines exist at every college and are, unfortunately, a reality of college life. In order to avoid the inconvenience and expense of administrative fees and fines, please take the time to inform yourself of Dartmouth College polices and the associated consequences of rules violation published in the Dartmouth College Student Handbook. Overdue library books, dorm damage, parking tickets and late registration are examples of common fees and fines.

HOW ADMINISTRATIVE FEES AND FINES WORK
Every student has an Administrative Fees and Fines account upon arrival at Dartmouth. If a student violates a published rule, the associated department will notify the student of the violation and any related fees or fines. The student is provided the opportunity to appeal the violation. After expiration of the appeal period, fees or fines not abated on appeal are posted to the Administrative Fees and Fines account.

Any student that accumulates an outstanding balance of $150 or greater in their Administrative Fees and Fines account will be placed on registration hold until the balance due is paid in full. Students with registration holds will be notified in advance of registration.

ADMINISTRATIVE FEES AND FINES ASSISTANCE AND CUSTOMER SERVICE
The Dartmouth Card Office provides Administrative Fees and Fines customer support. However, as the Dartmouth Card Office does not originate fees and fines (exception - lost Dartmouth Card replacement), questions relating to specific transactions should be directed to the individual College department that posted the charge. As a service to keep students informed of recent charges posted to their accounts, the Dartmouth Card Office provides periodic e-mail statements summarizing account activity.
