When a private agency pays a portion of your tuition, fees, or required textbooks, this is considered third-party billing. The agency will receive a bill directly from the University and send the payment directly to the University (NOT to you, the student).
Scholarship third-party billing is only available as an option if the student/private agency provides the necessary tuition assistance documents prior to each term of enrollment. The tuition assistance documents must meet all standard requirements and will provide Kaplan University with direct bill authorization. If the private agency determines you are no longer eligible to receive a scholarship, you will be responsible for paying the tuition balance.
To have a private agency approved for direct billing, please send the following information to tavoucher@kaplan.edu:
- The name of the agency
- The contact information for the Educational Benefits Coordinator

Applying for scholarships is a time-consuming process and organizations have different schedules for disbursement. We urge you not to rely solely upon scholarships for Kaplan University program financing.
