I have a sponsor who will be paying my education expenses. What do I do?

If there is no credit or payment  for a Third Party Sponsor on your Registration Billing Statement, return the top portion of the statement with a copy of the award letter or sponsor agreement. Be sure that the student's name and I.D. number are noted on these documents. Students may deduct the amount to be paid by the sponsor and pay any remaining balance due prior to the Due Date shown on the statement. Only upon receipt of the required documents from the sponsor will Student Account Services process a deferment (credit) on the student?s billing statement for the appropriate semester amount. For additional information, please call or write the Third-Party Billing/Sponsored Student Coordinator in the Office of Student Account Services at 305-284-6430 Option 5.

I am a participant in the Florida Pre-Paid Tuition Program. What do I need to do to get my Florida Pre-Paid funds to credit my student account?

The Florida Pre-Paid Program must be notified that the student will be attending the University of Miami. The Third Party Billing Coordinator in the Office of Student Account Services must be provided with the correct information and amounts to bill the Florida Prepaid Account. Students must also complete the University of Miami?s Florida Prepaid College Program Authorization Form. This form can be accessed on-line at www.miami.edu/osas/flpp. 

The toll-free number to call the Florida Prepaid Tuition Program is 1-800-552-4723.

I will be receiving an outside scholarship to pay for a portion of my tuition and fees. What do I do?

Students are required to provide two (2) copies of the scholarship check or award letter from the sponsor. The letter must include information regarding the amount and corresponding semester that the scholarship is applicable to. If this information is not noted, the total award will be divided evenly between the fall and spring semesters. This will not be modified unless the sponsor provides the Office of Financial Assistance with a written document detailing the requested disbursement for each semester.  One copy of the sponsor?s award letter must be submitted to the Office of Financial Assistances Services. The second copy must be provided to the Cashiers? Office located on the first floor of the Ashe Building. Once received and processed, a temporary credit will be processed on the student?s Registration Billing Statement until the actual funding is received by the University.
