Corporate Promissory Note
The student's employer reimburses the student for the cost of tuition prior to the beginning of the semester or pays Lindenwood University directly, through the corporate promissory note. In this case, it is the student's responsibility to ensure that the tuition payment is made or that the employer's tuition voucher is submitted to the University's Business Office by the payment deadline of each semester. Students should register for courses and start the reimbursement/payment process with their employers as early as possible to meet the payment and federal financial aid deadlines. Failure to submit payment or the necessary paperwork to the Business Office by the published payment deadline may result in late fees. In addition, all transcripts and documents must be submitted to the Office of Evening and Graduate Admissions to facilitate an admit letter to the financial aid office. Once the letter is submitted, federal and state aid programs can be administered. It is the student's responsibility to follow up with the employer, the Financial Aid Office and the Business Office to ensure that all necessary steps have been completed by the deadline. Please direct any questions regarding your payment arrangements to the appropriate Student Account Representative.
All tuition charges and fees are due prior to the beginning of the term. Students should consult their student account representatives in the Business Office regarding due dates or to make other payment arrangements prior to the beginning of the term. Alternately, students may utilize their student portals to remit payment.
Corporate Promissory Note: The Corporate Promissory Note is available to students who work for companies that have tuition reimbursement plans. Proof of employment and a copy of the company’s reimbursement policy must be on file in the Business Office. The amount of the promissory note cannot exceed the amount the employer pays for tuition for each term. The due date for all promissory notes is 30 days following the conclusion of the term for which the note applies. A monthly late charge will be assessed after this date. By signing a promissory note, students give Lindenwood University permission to contact their employers if the note is not paid by the date due. Any payment or financial aid received prior to the promissory note due date will be applied to the balance appearing on the student’s account.
