The Bursar’s Office – Third Party Billing will bill for tuition and fees on a per term basis. A letter of authorization from the sponsoring organization is required and must expressly authorize UW-Madison to bill the sponsor directly for the student’s covered tuition and fees.
A third party deferral credit will be applied to the sponsored student’s tuition account for each term. The third party credit is conditional upon the sponsor’s payment.
