Employee Tuition Benefits

The university's employee educational benefits program may apply toward Online Learning courses.

Alumni Audit

Online Learning courses are not eligible for the Alumni Audit program.

Employer or Agency Tuition Assistance

A student requesting employer- or agency-billing arrangements must furnish Student Accounts with a valid contract or purchase order before the first day of classes. A contract or purchase order must contain the following information: (1) student name and ID number, (2) term of attendance, (3) specific costs (and dollar amounts) to be paid by the sponsor (tuition, books, supplies, fees), (4) sponsor's billing address, and (5) contract or purchase order number or accounting appropriation, if applicable. Documentation submitted in lieu of a valid purchase order will not relieve a student of financial responsibility.

In case of partial assistance, the student is required to pay the balance of his or her tuition costs at the time of registration to be considered registered. A student portion that qualifies for one of the university payment plans is to be paid according to that plan. Failure to comply will result in the assessment of a 1 percent per month finance charge.

A student entitled to Campus Store credit may obtain a book charge form from Student Accounts. Purchases are permitted through the end of the add/drop period. Failure to submit vouchers in a timely manner may result in the assessment of late fees.

A student is responsible for payment of any billed amounts that have been disallowed by his or her sponsor.
