- What is Third Party Coverage?
- This is when an agency, business or school sends in paperwork to Niagara University stating that they will be responsible for all or a percentage of the student’s tuition, fees, and/or housing expenses. The amount can vary per agency, business, or school.
- What Happens?
- If we are required to complete paperwork for the scholarship or grant to be disbursed we will apply an estimated credit on the student’s account for the amount the agency, business, or school is willing to pay. The agency, business, or school will then be responsible for paying the given amount in the student’s behalf for that semester. At that point we will then bill the agency, business or school for the amount of tuition credited to the student’s account.
If the paperwork from the agency, business or school is mailed to the student we will then need for the student to bring in or mail the paperwork to the Student Accounts Office.
If the Student Accounts Office does not have to complete paperwork for the scholarship to be disbursed - the outside private scholarship will not be deferred on the bill.

- SCHOLARSHIP CHECK: What do I do with a check that is co-payable to me and Niagara University?
- If you receive a scholarship or loan check that is co-payable to
yourself and Niagara University you will then have to endorse the back
of the check and either bring it into the office or mail it to the
Student Account Office at the above address so that the funds will be
able to be placed onto your tuition account. Niagara University can
not endorse the scholarship or loan check and then give it back to the
student. We can only take in the check and place the funds to the
student’s tuition account. If you have a credit balance after all
tuition expenses are covered you can then apply for a refund or place
some funds onto you CCS ID card, such as Bookstore Fund, Gallagher Gold
or Campus Funds.
