Outside Sponsor (Government, Military, or Private Industry)
Any request to bill an outside sponsor must be submitted by June 15th for the fall semester and November 15th for the spring semester. Please remember that the student holds the ultimate responsibility of the financial obligation.
Company Reimbursement
If tuition is paid directly to Emerson by a third party, the student must provide the Office of Student Accounts with a purchase order or a written statement of intent to pay by the third party no later than the payment due date for the semester. If there are stipulations associated with the payment agreement that the student has not met, the student must either pay Emerson directly or enroll in one of the payment options.
Documentation pertaining to a third-party agreement can be faxed to 617-824-8657, emailed to bills [at] emerson.edu (bills[at]emerson[dot]edu), or mailed to:
Office of Student Accounts
Emerson College

Outside Loans & Scholarships
If you have a check from a scholarship foundation, we ask that you send it, along with any supporting documentation, to our office at the following address:

All checks must be from a U.S. bank and be payable in U.S. dollars. Please include the student’s name and Emerson ID number on the check.

College Savings Plans
Students and families using 529 plans to cover educational costs should reach out to their 529 plan provider to initiate the process of withdrawing funds. Funds can be transferred directly to Emerson, by electronic payment or by check.
Many 529 plans now offer an electronic distribution option, which saves time and allows for real-time payment tracking. When requesting a withdrawal from your 529 account, check with your plan provider to see if an electronic distribution option is available.
Payments made by check should be sent to the following address:
Office of Student Accounts
Emerson College
120 Boylston Street
Boston, MA 02116
Please ensure that the student’s full name and Emerson ID are included on the check.
*Many providers require a copy of the billing statement to determine eligible expenses or specific line-item costs. Once a billing statement becomes available, please submit this documentation to your provider.
