EMPLOYER REIMBURSEMENT POLICY

This plan allows for a deferment of payment provided documentation is presented of an employer’s intent to reimburse the student. For reimbursements less than 100% of all charges, the anticipated unreimbursed balance is due before classes start based on the published web date at www.lipscomb.edu (click on Offices, Business Office, Dates to Remember). Lipscomb does not charge interest during the semester on account balances under this plan. Balances are due and payable within two weeks (14 days) from the day grades are posted. If the employer does not pay Lipscomb within 14 days, the student will need to pay the balance and seek reimbursement from the employer.

Students who receive employer assistance must provide proof of employer’s intent to reimburse the student at the beginning of the Adult Studies or Graduate experience and at 12-month intervals after that. To demonstrate proof of intent, students must furnish copies of their employers’ reimbursement policy and a signed commitment from the entity’s human resources department on company letterhead. Attach this letter to the employee reimbursement form found in step 4 (Go to www.lipscomb.edu, click on Lipscomb Central, log into the Secure Area, select Student Services -> registration process-> payment options -> employee reimbursement) of the registration process on Lipscomb Central and mail or fax (615-966-1796) to the Student Accounts Office. You will then be made “officially registered” by a manual process. The employee reimbursement form must be submitted each semester for which you are registered. If your employer reimburses you after grades are submitted to them, you will be on “hold” when it is time to select classes. Please contact the Student Accounts Office at 615-966-1778 to get off hold.
