Usage Agreement/Manual Checkout
All student patrons of Equipment Checkout are required to sign an agreement detailing the Equipment Checkout late charge policy whenever you checkout an item. If you would like to review the fine sheet, see the link below.
All Equipment Checkout patrons should be aware that late or damaged returns will result in fines charged to your Bursar’s account. These fines increase by the hour, and will prevent your registering for future classes until paid in full. Fines are reported to the Bursar’s office at the end of every quarter and may be paid off in segments up until the end of the quarter without affecting your registration status.
Some important notes on paying fines:
- Once all items involved in a checkout are returned or reported as lost/stolen, the fine will no longer continue to increase. There is no interest attached to a fine after return.
- None of the Equipment Checkout staff, nor any IMT staff member in Atlanta can accept payment for a fine. All payment must be done through the bursar’s office.
- Only Equipment Checkout supervisors have the authority to lift a fine from your checkout account (which is separate from your Bursar’s account). To regain the ability to check equipment out, you must present a Bursar’s receipt of payment to an Equipment Checkout supervisor, primarily Germaine Brown(gmbrown@scad.edu).
Finally, please remember that any failure to return an item inconveniences the entire SCAD community, including students, staff and faculty. The late charges have been put into effect not only to penalize irresponsibility but to deter such inconveniences.
