Sponsor (Third-Party) Billing occurs when a public/private organization or governmental agency (the sponsor) pays for any portion of a student’s tuition, fees or other course and institutional-related fees.

• Sponsors are typically billed after the Withdrawal date (“W” Day) of each term (Fall, Spring, Winter, Summer).
• Any charges not paid by the Sponsor will be the responsibility of the student.
• Students must provide an official letter from the Sponsor stating the payment terms to the College Business Office.

There is no standard Sponsor/Third Party contract. Some organizations will write a letter stating what they plan to pay, while others have a special form. Regardless of the format, all contracts and letters must include the following information in order to be processed:

• Student's full name
• Student’s College ID Number, if available
• Specific charges and/or classes the Sponsor plans to pay for
  • Payor of last resort indication - If the Sponsor is indicated as the payor of last resort, all scholarships/grants will be applied first to charges before sponsor billing portion is determined.
• Specific semester covered by the contract
• Sponsor's billing address
• Contact information for questions

Note: If the Sponsor is requesting an invoice for all bookstore purchases, please contact the college bookstore directly to set up invoicing per its requirements. 

Tuition and fee assistance may be available to students who qualify for Veteran Benefits.

Please visit your college's Veteran Resource Center online or on campus for Veteran Benefit information.

What happens if I do not comply with the payment plan arrangement?

• You will not be able to enroll in a new payment plan until your existing one is completed. You will also not be able to enroll in additional classes or the subsequent term. 

What happens if I miss an installment payment?

• If you default on your payment plan, a hold will be placed on your account, preventing you from enrolling in additional classes or future semesters.

Are financial aid overpayments included in the payment plan?

• Only charges that are currently posted on your account will be included in the plan. Please contact the College Business office and/or Financial Aid Office to make financial aid overpayment arrangements.

What if I add a late start class after enrolling in a payment plan?

• Charges for your late start class will be included in the remaining installments on your plan, but the due dates for the plan will not change. Please note that any payment scheduled within 10 days of adding additional classes will remain unchanged.

What if I drop a late start class before the refund deadline?

• The installment amounts will be re-calculated if you drop a late start class before the refund deadline.

Is it safe to enroll online?

• All information is kept confidential and encrypted.

 Is there a fee to sign up for a payment plan, and how much is it?

There is a one-time non-refundable $25 enrollment fee when you sign up for a Payment Plan. Nelnet Business Solutions (NBS) will deduct the fee from your banking institution generally within 45-72 hours upon completion of the contract (as soon as you click the Authorize button).

The system won’t let me sign up for a payment plan. Why?

There could be several reasons the system does not show a “Setup Payment Plan” button.

• You may not be registered for classes for the semester.
• You have registered but your fees have been paid or are covered by financial aid
• You may owe "insufficient fund" fees to NBS due to a prior semester payment plan that had difficulties processing your monthly payments. You will be charged $30 per payment attempt that NBS tried to process during that semester. Prior payment plan balances must be paid in full before the system will allow you to sign up for a new payment plan.
• Our system shows you already have a payment plan in place.

If you are having trouble signing up for a plan or gaining access to the payment plan portal, please contact the Business Office at your home college and/or NBS for help.

NBS states I owe them money for NSF fees, why?

NBS charges $30 each time it is unable to draft a scheduled payment per the payment plan you signed up for. NBS blocks you from setting up a new payment plan until these owed fees are paid in full. NBS should have sent you emails explaining when and why these fees were charged.

For example, if you had a payment plan for the Fall semester and NBS was unable to draft one of the scheduled payments, NBS would charge your payment plan account a $30 NSF fee. If NBS was unable to draft that fee during that payment plan time frame, it will block any future access to payment plan until it's paid in full.

I just realized I didn't have enough money in my account for the enrollment fee or the down payment. What will happen?

If NBS is unable to draft the non-refundable enrollment fee or any required down payment, your contract will automatically terminate, and you will have to complete the process again. The college is notified of these failures within 24-48 hours.

I do not have a computer. How can I enroll in the payment plan?

You can enroll on any computer at home, on campus, or on a public computer such as one at the city library. ALL С����Ƶ colleges provide publics computer access for students use.

I'm having trouble with the application process. How can I get help?

 If you are having difficulty completing the application, please contact NBS (Nelnet) at (800) 609-8056 or the Business Office at your home college.

How often is the payment plan system notified of changes to my tuition account balance due to dropped/added classes and additional charges/payments?

Payment plans are updated on a regular basis, usually once a day. The payment plan system will notify you by email whenever a change occurs with your payment plan.

How will I be notified of changes or updates to my payment plan?

The payment plan system will email all notifications to the email address you provided while setting up the payment plan. Please make sure that you provide a current, valid email account and check your emails on a regular basis. After setting up a payment plan, make sure to check your spam folder regularly to ensure you are receiving the  notification emails. If an item is sent to the spam folder, you should be able to open the email and click to indicate that it is not spam. This will prevent future emails from NBS from going into the spam folder.

Can my parent(s)or another person sign up for a payment plan for my tuition balance?

You can set up an Authorized Party account for parents or other third parties assisting with paying for your education. Once the authorized party completes the login setup, they can access the Payment Plan portal and set up a payment plan on your behalf. Due to FERPA regulations, only students have access to the (Mycollege.laccd.edu). The college is not able to create usernames and passwords for anyone other than the student.

My balance is now zero. Will the payment plan end?

Once your account has a $0 balance, your payment plan status becomes inactive. If you are charged any additional fees on your account at any time during the remainder of the semester the plan will re-activate and draft monthly payments until it is paid in full. For example financial aid is disbursed on your account, pays your outstanding balance off, and a remaining refund is issued to you. At that moment, you have a $0 balance, and your payment plan status becomes inactive. If you add a class or financial aid adjusts your award and financial aid overpayment is now charged on your account, the payment plan system will start drafting monthly payments again based on that new balance.

I have a third party/sponsor paying for my full or partial tuition. Do I need to sign up for a payment plan?

It depends, If a third-party entity is paying your tuition in full for the semester, you will not need to sign up for a payment plan. The entity must have official sponsor letter on file with the Home College Business Office by the posted deadlines.  A third party/sponsor is not a parent, grandparent, guardian, etc; it is a government agency or public/private organization such as the Department of Veteran Affairs, Department of Rehabilitation, a foreign embassy, Career Ladder, CAMP, and an employer. If a third-party entity is paying for part of your tuition, and you unable to pay off the remaining balance in full by the payment deadlines, you may need to set up a payment plan. Please contact your college's Business Office for more information.

I have been awarded financial aid for the semester. Do I need to sign up for a payment plan?

You do not need to sign up for a payment plan if you have been officially awarded* financial aid for the semester. You can view your financial aid award status in your  (Mycollege.laccd.edu).  However, if you haven't received your award letter, we recommend that you sign up for a payment plan while financial aid continues to process your financial aid. Completing the financial aid application online does not guarantee that the school will award financial aid to you. You will need to make the monthly payments until your aid is disbursed on your account.

*Awarded is defined as the Los Angeles Community College District has officially mailed or emailed the student an Award Letter stating the maximum amount the student is eligible to receive for the semesters indicated. The student has met requirements for eligibility based on the information supplied on their financial aid application and any other additional documentation submitted to the college.

Can I pay the one-time payment plan enrollment fee in cash?

No. The system only accepts online payment with a credit or debit card to pay for the one-time enrollment fee, required down payments, and monthly payments. Payment plan-related payments cannot be made with the College Business Office.

I don't have a debit or credit card. Can I still enroll?

The payment plan system requires you to have either a debit card or credit card available for the duration of the plan period in order to sign up for a plan.

I registered for the payment plan but decided to pay in full instead directly on my student account instead. Can I stop my down payment?

No, the down payment is immediate, and neither the payment plan company no the college cannot stop the transaction. We recommend you allow the down payment to process and post to your student account before making any remaining payments directly to the college.

I didn't realize I was short of funds in my account, and there will not be enough money in my account for the down payment. What will happen?

If your down payment is returned due to lack of funds, stop payment, or inaccurate banking information, your agreement will be terminated. If an accurate e-mail address is provided, you will receive notification from NBS on what steps to follow. Currently, you will not be assessed a missed payment fee from NBS if the down payment fails. If the down payment fails and you do not take further actions by the payment deadlines, you could be dropped from all your classes.  

How will I be notified of my payment information?

Once your agreement is posted to the NBS system, you will receive a confirmation notification of your payment amount by email.

I registered for the payment plan. Can I pay the school for the next payment instead of NBS?

No, if you pay the school directly, scheduled payment will not be cancelled unless your account balance is now $0. The reduction in account balance will be reported to NBS and your scheduled payment amounts will be adjusted accordingly.

I dropped a class after the 1st of the month. Will that change the next monthly payment on the 15th? Students should expect the payment to draft as scheduled on the fifteenth of the month.

Depending on timing and our weekly updates to the system, we generally tell students to expect the payment to draft as scheduled.
