    Default Billed for Unpaid Student Fees Years After Graduation

    My question involves collection proceedings in the State of: Louisiana

    Hi
    Suddenly after 14 years of graduation I am blocked from getting transcripts because My University's Accounts Receivable discovered unpaid balance of $900, they claimed they discovered from a computer data file that survived Katrina Hurricane, and that paper documentations were lost in Katrina.
    I dispute that and I was got transcripts of my degree several times before and after Katrina.
    Now I am disabled and I don't have $900 to pay balance so I can get transcripts and replacement for diploma.

    What can I do legally.
    and what can I do to get my transcript/diploma replacemnt.
    How can I prove them wrong?
    Are there grants out there to pay the claimed unpaid balance???

    Default Re: My University Found Unpaid Balance 14 Years After Graduation

    You probably can't do anything "legally."

    While the debt is well beyond the statute of limitations for a lawsuit, you still owe the money and the university has no obligation to provide you with a transcript.

    How you prove them wrong is come up with records to show that you paid. If you don't have records you're stuck with the bill.

    As for grants, I have no idea.
