Greetings, We are writing to inquire about your stand on colleges withholding the official records of students by reason of nonpayment of tuition and other school fees. This issue has become a growing concern for students who are unable to pay their fees on time and are unable to access their academic records. As a concerned unit of the LGU of Pandi, we would like to know if CHED has any guidelines or regulations in place to ensure that students' academic records are not withheld by schools due to nonpayment of fees. If there are no existing guidelines, I would like to know if CHED is consider
