How to set up third-party billing
-
Set up formal billing arrangements with PCC
Contact Student Account Services and let us know you would like to make arrangements for third party billing.
-
Prepare billing authorizations
Authorizations must be submitted on your official letterhead and include the student’s name, PCC ID, and an itemization of all charges to be billed. To set up multiple-term authorizations, specify which terms to authorize (limited to one academic year). All third party billing accounts must provide a valid US mailing address.
- Eligible charges: include tuition and mandatory class fees (lab, Online Learning, student activity, college service, technology, and transportation), parking permits, billing fees, and late charges.
- Book authorizations: submit directly to the bookstore by fax (971-722-4371). Do not combine tuition and bookstore authorization or payment.
- Restrictions: payment cannot be contingent upon grades or successful completion of class, enrollment, attendance, or financial aid status.
-
Submit authorizations
Bring to any campus Student Account Services, or fax to 971-722-2816, attention “Third Party Billing”.
- Billing authorization deadline: authorizations are due by the payment due date and must include the student’s PCC ID number. Late authorizations may result in deletion of the student’s course registration.
-
Make payment
Payment is due upon receipt of invoice. For billing fees, please refer to the table below. Important! To ensure proper credit, reference your PCC Vendor ID and invoice number on your remittance. Do not combine payment with other PCC invoices.
- Unpaid charges: Released to the student after 45 days and become ineligible for re-billing. Students are instructed to follow-up with their third party sponsor.
