Third Party Payments

Students who have a third party, such as an employer, directly paying all or part of their tuition and fees to Johns Hopkins must submit the appropriate paperwork by the deadlines. Read below for more details. 

The following are not considered third party payments: 

  • Payments from family members or friends 
  • Payment plans 
  • Employer reimbursement 

Payments not received by Johns Hopkins from the third party payer will become the responsibility of the student. 

  1. Request an agreement from your third party payer. Include:
  2. Upload your third party payer agreement (also known as a contract or voucher) to JHU SIS Self-Service each semester/term and before the initial payment due date.
    • If your third party payer does not require you to upload an agreement, you must still complete the acknowledgment. 
    • If your third party pays per course and you add/drop, a new agreement must be submitted.
    • If your third party payer is not listed in the SIS Self-Service dropdown as an option, you will need to attach your agreement to a case using SEAM’s online form. 
  3. Monitor the status of your agreement in SIS Self-Service. Upon submission of an agreement, the status will immediately update with the “Contract Received” status. As your agreement(s) move through the billing process, you will see additional status updates, including those listed below.
    • Contract Received: Your contract has been received by SEAM, and will be/is under review.
    • Contract Accepted: Your contract has been reviewed by SEAM, and was accepted.
      • An anticipated payment will show on your account in the amount authorized in the agreement. This anticipated payment memo does not indicate that the third party has made payment and does not release the student from financial responsibility for those charges.
    • Contract Denied: Your contract has been reviewed by SEAM, and was denied. SEAM will contact you directly via email to follow up.
    • Invoice Submitted: SEAM has submitted an invoice for your contract to your third party.
    • Invoice Rejected: Your third party has rejected payment of your submitted contract. SEAM will contact you directly via email to follow up.
    • Payment Received: SEAM has received payment from your third party. 
  4. Payments not received by Johns Hopkins from the third party payer will become the responsibility of the student.
