Third Party Billing 

A student whose tuition or a portion of tuition and fees are paid by a third party must provide a letter or voucher from the agency to the Bursar’s Office.  The letter or voucher must have all necessary signatures and include the student’s name, FVSU ID number, and total amount the agency is agreeing to pay.  It should also include the agency name, billing address, email and telephone number of the contact person at the agency.  Email documents to ecashier@fvsu.edu or deliver documents to the Bursar’s Office (Troup Building, Suite 234) for certification before the first day of class.

An invoice will be sent to the agency approximately four to six weeks after the first day of class.  Students are responsible for any balance not paid by the third party agency.
