THIRD PARTY PAYMENTS

If you have a recognized third party (employer, labor union, foundation, etc.) who is paying all or a portion of your tuition, you may send a copy of the billing authorization form along with your invoice and a credit will be applied to your account for the authorized stated amount. Be sure to enclose a check or other form of payment for any amount not covered by the billing authorization. To be eligible, the authorization form must be from a recognized organization, not an individual, clearly indicate the amount that will be paid, must give all necessary billing instructions and must be signed by an authorized representative. IF THE ORGANIZATION REIMBURSES YOU AT THE END OF THE SEMESTER UPON RECEIPT OF YOUR GRADES, you must pay the tuition in full at the beginning of the semester, enroll in the Deferred Payment Plan or apply for financial aid to cover the semester charges and then await reimbursement from your third party.


FINANCIAL AID CREDITS

When you have been granted an award by the Financial Services Office, your invoice will be credited for the amount of the award(s). Generally, the credit will be for one-half of the annual award. Financial aid is generally disbursed on or before the first day of classes. A financial aid memo is an estimated credit that is applied to your account until the actual funds are received and disbursed to your account. There are many reasons for a financial aid memo to be on your account including, delayed loan disbursement or incomplete aid application. Once the funds are disbursed the memo will expire. If the funds are not disbursed, your memo will expire within the first thirty (30) days of the semester. It will be your responsibility to contact Student Financial Services to determine why your aid did not disburse.


VETERANS BENEFITS

Veterans entitled to Educational Benefits under Title 38 of the U.S. Code, who are applying for these benefits for the first time, should submit their applications (VA Form 22-1990) with a copy of their separation papers (DD 214) to the REGISTRAR'S OFFICE. The Registrar's Office will complete the enrollment certification and forward both forms to the VA. Veterans already enrolled and certified should report to the Registrar's Office and to the VA any changes in the number of credit hours they are pursuing.
