Pay from Another Source

 

From Financial Aid

Financial Aid will be applied toward any amount due to LBCC before the monies are released to you. Financial Aid checks will be direct deposited (or mailed) bi-weekly beginning the second week of the term. You can sign up for direct deposit on Webrunner.

You assume full responsibility for tuition and fees and will be charged late fees if Financial Aid is not disbursed prior to the late fee assessed dates. If Financial Aid is denied or canceled, you remain responsible for all charges unless you withdraw during the refund period.

 

From an Authorized User

An authorized user is an individual (parent, guardian, or employer) whom you have approved to make electronic payments on your behalf.

You (the student) need to follow these steps to first invite the authorized user:

After you send the invite, the authorized user will receive an email invitation to enroll in Touchnet.

Authorized users should pay only the current balance due. Credit balances are refunded to the student unless the payment was made by credit card, in which case the card used will be credited.

 

From a Third Party

Third-party billing is when a private or government agency (such as employer or sponsoring agency) pays any portion of your tuition or fees. Third parties pay the college directly on your behalf with an agreement, commitment, or obligation between you and the paying party.

Qualifications for Third-Party Billing

Outside organizations can qualify for third-party billing if:

Check with your sponsor.
Before you register for classes, check with your sponsor and make sure they have a formal billing arrangement with LBCC.

Provide billing authorization.
Have your sponsor provide a billing authorization to you or to the college.

Meet the due dates.
We must receive your billing authorization by the payment due date. It’s up to you to make sure the billing authorization is received on time. Email authorizations to wheeles@linnbenton.edu or mail to our address (see above). You must finish registering for classes, including waitlisted, open-entry, and late-starting classes, by the second Tuesday of the term. Third-party payments are not subject to the same deadlines as student payments, nor are third-party bills sent at the same time as student bills. You are responsible for ensuring that payments made on your behalf are received in a timely manner. We generally expect payment prior to the end of term. If your third-party payer fails to pay, you are responsible for paying all charges due on your account.

Check your student account.
Check your student account balance regularly in Webrunner. If you owe money, either we did not receive the authorization, it is incomplete, or the sponsor is only paying part of your bill. If your authorization is not enough to cover your bill, you will need to pay the difference by the payment due date.

Do not set up your third party as an authorized user on your student account.

Be aware when making third-party purchases at the Campus Store.

It normally takes one business day from the time we receive the authorization to post the funds to your account. However, due to increased volume at the start of the term, it may take an additional day to process forms during that time. When making your purchase, indicate the purchase is being paid for with agency funding.

  • It is best if your sponsor sends your authorization to us early. In most cases, you can purchase your books and supplies before the term starts.
  • You are ultimately responsible for the purchases that you make at the Campus Store. If for any reason your sponsor does not pay, you will be placed on hold (which means you will not be able to register for classes or receive transcripts) and billed for the items that were not paid for.
  • Contact your sponsor directly with questions about what items you are allowed to purchase. The Campus Store posts amounts to your account based on the authorization submitted by your sponsor. We are not able to allow purchases of items such as electronics, calculators, backpacks, or computers that are not specifically authorized.
