The Office of Student Accounts Third Party Payments and Scholarships The Office of Student Accounts handles two types of Third-Party Payments/Scholarships – those that submit payment in advance and those that are billed to the company/organization. You may submit your third party’s preferred form of payment, whether it is a check, voucher, or authorization to bill a company/organization, to the cashier's window in Simmons Hall or by mail to:
The University of Akron Student Accounts/Bursar P.O. 2260 Akron, Ohio 44309
Please be sure that all required information is provided and that all checks or vouchers are signed when it is necessary. All payments will be posted to the student’s account promptly.
You must complete and sign a Third Party Billing Application or any item that requires the University to disclose information for billing a Third-Party. See the Third Party Billing Application for further information.
If you or the Third-Party would like to contact us by mail, please mail us at the following address:
