There are two types of employer third-party payments – deferred billing and direct billing.

Note: This does not include Quinnipiac Employee Tuition Benefits. Please contact humanresources@qu.edu for more information if you are an employee of QU.

Employer Deferred Billing

This payment method applies to students whose employers will remit payment upon receipt of the student’s final grades at the end of the term. Students should notify One Stop regarding this payment option, by completing the Employer Promissory Note and select “payment option A.”Students are required to attach a voucher or letter of credit for the semester at the bottom of the form. Students are required to make a down payment for 30% of total charges and a $25 deferment fee must be paid prior to the start of the semester. The remaining balance is due within 5 weeks of the last day of the semester.

Employer Direct Billing

This payment method applies to students who are provided with a voucher or letter of credit before the start of each term indicating that the employer will remit payment upon receipt of the invoice regardless of the student’s final grades. Students should notify One Stop regarding this payment option, by completing the Employer Promissory Note and selecting “payment option B.”. Students are required to attach a voucher or letter of credit for the semester at the bottom of the form. One Stop will send an invoice to the employer specified on the voucher or letter of credit prior to the beginning of the semester. Employers must remit payment within 3 weeks of the first date of the semester to prevent a financial hold on the student’s account.
