Third-Party Tuition Assistance

The Office of Student Accounts manages the billing process on behalf of the student when a third-party vendor provides documentation to sponsor a student’s bill. Third-party vendors consist of corporations, military agencies, state and federal agencies, private scholarships, and others.

Notification of sponsorship amount and conditions must be communicated to OSA by either the vendor or the student before the semester payment deadline. Authorizations can be submitted in person, mailed in, or emailed to thirdparty@wvstateu.edu.


To ensure accurate processing, authorizations MUST include the following details:

  • Student’s Full Name
  • Student’s WVSU ID Number
  • Specific charges or dollar amount that the vendor will cover
  • Semester for which the sponsor will be covering expenses
  • Billing address for the vendor
  • Contact information of the person authorizing the contract

Once the contract is set up, invoices will be submitted to the vendor for payment after the add/drop period of each semester.
