Third Party Payments

Payment of your tuition and fees may be made by a third party.  In most cases, this is by your employer.  If a company is paying for your tuition and fee, our Student Administrative Services (SAS) office must receive an Employer Reimbursement Form.  The Employer Reimbursement Form must be completed so that the online MBA program office can make arrangements for billing with an employer.  Deferred payments may be made if tuition reimbursement is performance based, or, if it is the policy of the company.
