The City University of New York Policy on Withholding Student Records
Students who are delinquent and/or in default in any of their financial accounts with the College, the University, or an appropriate state or federal agency for which the University acts as either a disbursing or certifying agent, and students who have not completed exit interviews as required by the Federal Perkins Loan Program, the Federal Family Education Loan Programs, the William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Program and the Nursing Student Loan Program, are not permitted to complete registration, or be issued a copy of their grade, a transcript of academic record, certificate or degree, nor are they to receive funds under the federal campus-based student assistance programs or the Federal Pell Grant Program unless the designated officer, in exceptional hardship cases and consistent with federal and state regulations, waives in writing the application of this regulation.
