Understanding Program Suspension at Nexford University

Program suspension is a temporary status that prevents you from enrolling in courses due to an unresolved financial or administrative issue. Suspension is not a permanent action, but it does have a time limit — if the underlying issue is not resolved within the allowed period, your enrollment may be terminated.

Note: This article reflects the policies in the current catalog. Learners enrolled under a previous catalog version should refer to their applicable catalog or contact Learner Success for clarification.

Reasons for Suspension

1. Unpaid Tuition

Tuition must be paid in advance to secure your enrollment for each month of study. If your invoice is not settled before the enrollment window closes, you will not be enrolled for that term and your studies will be placed on financial suspension.

2. Outstanding Admission Documents (AEP Status)

If you were admitted under Provisional or AEP status, you are required to submit all final admission documents within 90 days of your program start date. If the required documents are not received and verified by that deadline, your account will be placed on suspension and you will not be able to enroll in further courses until the documents have been submitted and processed.

What Suspension Means for You

• You cannot enroll in or attend any courses while your account is suspended
• Tuition is not charged for any full months you spend on official suspension

How Long Suspension Lasts

Suspension has a maximum duration of two months. If the issue causing your suspension is not resolved within that period, you will be administratively dismissed from the University.

To end your suspension and restore your eligibility to enroll:

• Financial suspension: Settle your outstanding tuition balance
• AEP suspension: Submit all required admission documents for verification

Act as quickly as possible. The two-month window runs from the start of the suspension, not from when you become aware of it.
