Students

Want to allow someone else to view and pay your Virginia Tech eBills?

What is an “Authorized Payer?"

Someone to whom the student has given permission to view and pay their tuition and fees. Usually this is a parent, but it can be anyone.

An Authorized Payer:

  • will receive an email notification (eBill) each time a statement is generated
  • can view and print their student's eBills
  • sees the same statement and history as the student
  • can view all new charge activity in detail
  • can make online payments on your student's behalf. Read more about payment options.
  • can securely store payment profiles for easy transactions and the student cannot see these
  • can set up installment plans

A student can establish multiple authorized payers on their account. Authorized payers and students can reset account passwords as needed. 

Authorized payer access cannot be used to pay tuition scholarships. Sponsors can contact bursar@vt.edu for invoice or scholarship payment options.

Students can revoke the access of an authorized payer.
