Frequently asked questions

What information should I include on a tuition invoice?

Include institution name and address, student name and ID, invoice number, date, due date, academic term, itemized charges, discounts, and total due. Avoid including sensitive personal data like social security numbers.

Can I include financial aid awards on the invoice?

Yes, but only if they are disbursed or credited to the student's account. Show them as deductions from the total. Pending aid should be noted separately, not subtracted.

How does FERPA affect tuition invoices?

FERPA protects student education records. Tuition invoices are generally considered education records, so you should not include non-directory information that is not necessary for billing. Keep the invoice limited to billing details.
