18A:71B-10. Collection of Overpayments and Ineligible Payments of Financial Aid.

Because the institution is responsible for ensuring a student's eligibility for financial aid awarded under this chapter, the institution shall be responsible for collecting any State awards which are overpayments or any State awards for which the student is ineligible in whole or in part. In the event an institution is unable to collect an overpayment or ineligible payment from the student, the institution may request the authority to collect the debt from the student. If the institution demonstrates to the authority that it has made a good faith effort to collect the debt, the authority may, on a case by case basis, approve this request. If the authority approves this request from an institution, the authority may use collection procedures that include, but are not limited to, the procedures set forth under N.J.S.18A:71C-1 through N.J.S.18A:71C-20.
