RE: 3rd party monthly payment plans

Please respond to the list.

Also, I assume that payment to the institution is made as the money is
collected?? I am being told by my financial aid staff that there are
companies out there that front the money?? Does anyone know a company that
will do that?

Thanks

All

For those of you who have contracted with a third party to provide your
students with monthly payment plans, how long does the 3rd party retain the
funds before sending them to your institution? Typically I have seen 28
days as the normal float. Please respond if you have these types of
arrangements with external companies. Thanks very much
