<prompt> Human: Has anyone ever been in this situation before. My SO just graduated in May from a graduate program. Last week she received a notice from the school saying that the bill for summer of 2013 semester is due. It sounds like an easy mistake where the school doesnt know she graduated.She calls the school admission office to explain this and they say she should have received the invoice before graduation and she is still on the hook for money.In my mind, there isnt a college in the US who would let any student graduate without having paid off a school parking ticket let alone thousands in tuition. Is there any obligation to pay this after graduation? What should we do if they dont remove the charges? Could this impact her credit score?Edit: Thanks everyone for the comments. Well definitely follow up with them to try and get the full story.  <response>: Who did you speak to at the admissions office? Id probably just ask to speak to their supervisor until you got someone that knew what they were talking about. If shes not taking classes in the summer then clearly she doesnt need to pay for summer tuition.
