University Bursar - Has my sponsor paid the conditional sponsor credits per semester?

If you are enrolled in sponsor billing for the current semester, follow these steps to confirm whether your sponsor has paid your charges:

1 Submit Sponsor Authorization

    • Ensure that a sponsor billing authorization form has been submitted and approved. This can be done by either you or your sponsor through the Sponsor Authorization Portal.

2 Understand Conditional Sponsor Credits

    • Once the authorization is approved, conditional sponsor credits will be applied to your student account. These credits represent the charges billed to your sponsor but do not guarantee payment. The conditional credit on the student account does not indicate payment was received from the sponsor. 

3 Check the Sponsor Billing Card in Banner Self-Service

    • Starting with the Fall 2024 semester, students can track your sponsor’s activity using the Sponsor Billing Card in Banner Self-Service.
    • The Sponsor Billing Card will display:
      • Conditional sponsor credits for each semester.
      • The date charges were billed to your sponsor.
      • Whether the sponsor has paid those charges.

4 Follow Up with Your Sponsor

    • If any charges remain unpaid, it is your responsibility to follow up with your sponsor to ensure payment is made.
    • Prompt follow-up will help keep your account updated and in good standing.

5 Understand Reversal of Credits

    • Be aware that conditional sponsor credits not paid by the sponsor will be removed from your account. You will then be responsible for paying those charges.
