After a payment is made, a financial hold is not released immediately (same day). There is a payment holding or waiting period based on the payment method used to clear the outstanding balance. Although there is no payment holding period for Guaranteed funds, 529 or College Savings Plan, or Financial Aid, a financial hold is not automatically released the same day. Please contact our office at studentaccounts@case.edu or 216.368.2226 for same day release.
Below is a table with examples of when (date) a financial hold is automatically released, based on the payment method used. Please be aware that certain payment method(s) may have an additional processing fee.
Calendar days are used as an estimate for business days.
