A sponsored student is one that requires Sinclair Community College to invoice a third party for their tuition, fees (e.g., 1st time registration, auxiliary, lab/course/program, and online course fees), books and/or supplies each term while they are attending the college.
The Bursar Office will process third party billing of tuition, fees, and books to businesses, governments, agencies, organizations and employers who wish to sponsor a student at Sinclair Community College.
Billing is processed on a per term basis and a letter, voucher, PO, or contract must be submitted each term for all sponsored students/programs to the Bursar Office before the scheduled payment deadline for the enrolled courses. This will detail the sponsor’s guarantee to pay the student’s expenses as listed in the letter, voucher, PO, or contract. The authorization will not be contingent upon the student receiving a specific grade; once submitted the sponsor is obligated to pay no matter the employment status, the grade(s) received, or if courses are dropped after the designated refund withdraw deadline. Please see the Contract Information section below for submitting documents to the Bursar Office.
It is the sponsored student’s responsibility to have all required documents submitted to the Bursar Office and to provide payment for any uncovered balance before the scheduled payment deadline each term. It is also the sponsored student's responsibility to provide any required student account information to their sponsor each term (i.e., grade reports, term statements (fka: fee bills), or other).
Students, who may be eligible for grants, loans, scholarships, or other financial aid in a given term, should notify the Bursar Office prior to the start of the term. If a student receives both Financial Aid and Sponsorship funding the Sponsorship funding could be delayed and the amount authorized may be contingent on the amount and type of financial aid received.
All documents can be mailed, emailed or presented in person (10-205 or 10-016).
