BJC Tuition Assistance
Please review the procedures for processing our BJC tuition reimbursement program.
Issue
As of January 1, 2014, BJC has made changes to the tuition reimbursement program. BJC will no longer pay the college in advance for courses the employees are taking at the college. Reimbursement of the approved amount will be received following successful completion of the course or courses.
The college, in support of the BJC employee’s efforts to advance their career through higher education, will implement a deferred payment plan. This plan, while deferring payment until after the end of the term, is contingent upon the employee taking the steps to obtain the tuition reimbursement and also meeting the established college payment requirements.
Procedure
- Each term the BJC employee who is a student at Goldfarb School of Nursing must inform the business office that they are applying for BJC Tuition Reimbursement. The student must meet (in person or by telephone) with the business office to review tuition and fees for the term and determine the amount not covered by tuition reimbursement. The student will print and sign a Letter of Understanding, regarding their obligation, and turn it into the business office before each term.
- The student must submit the proper BJC tuition reimbursement application and obtain an authorization of approved amount of reimbursement at least 30 days before the start of the term. The student must provide this authorization when meeting with the business office.
- The business office will prepare a student account planning schedule based upon known charges and sources of payment when meeting with the student. The student will be informed of their financial obligation.
- While tuition reimbursement might be a potential funding source, it will not be used to determine refunds to the student until the reimbursement is received by the college.
- Students will be allowed to register for next term even though tuition reimbursement is not received until after the end of the prior term when grades are submitted by the student to the BJC Employee Service Center. Should tuition reimbursement not be received within 30 days after the end of the term, the student must make immediate payment, be withdrawn from the current term per Goldfarb refund rules or submit an alternative payment plan to the vice dean for finance and administration documenting proof of alternative funding to be received by the college within 14 days.
- Transcripts will not be released until tuition reimbursement or student payment of the account balance is received by the college. Diplomas will not be released until the account has been paid in full.
Please contact any member of the business office with questions.
Payments
Tuition and fees, minus known financial aid, are due the first week of the term or in installments: 25% per month paid approximately the first week of term and the first week of subsequent months.
Payments can be made by:
- A check mailed to: Goldfarb School of Nursing, Attn: Business Office, 4483 Duncan Avenue, St. Louis, MO 63110
- ACH via Nelnet online payment portal. Nelnet Payment Options and Schedule (Nelnet is accessible through GUS Connect single sign-on)
- Debit/Credit Card via Nelnet online payment portal. (Nelnet is accessible through GUS Connect single sign-on)
Students with a balance who are not adhering to the above due date schedule will have a hold placed on their student account. A hold restricts registration and release of transcripts. The business office reserves the right to disenroll students if the outstanding balance is in arrears.
Billing Statements
Monthly statements are not printed/mailed. If you require a printed statement for a scholarship or aid application, please contact the business office.

There are six (6) sections in the student account, and we recommend you focus on the account summary by term. This report will show charges and payments for current and past terms going back to January 1, 2010. You should also check the View Holds Report. This report will indicate if there is a specific hold on your account and identifies individuals to contact.
Banner Self Service is for your use only, and the business office personnel will not be able to see these reports. You can print these reports and bring them to our office if you have any questions.
Financial Responsibility
Tuition and fees, minus known financial aid, is due the first week of the term. If unable to comply, students should contact the business office to discuss options. Payment/installment plans will not automatically be set up without approval from the business office. Payment of student charges must meet due dates to avoid a hold placed on their student account which restricts registration and release of transcripts.
Students with a balance of $100 or less may enroll for the upcoming session. The business office reserves the right to restrict registration or disenroll students for a particular term if the outstanding obligation is sufficiently in arrears. Records of final course grades, official transcripts, degrees or certificates will not be released until all financial obligations are paid in full. No college officer or advisor can relieve students of financial responsibility.
Refunds
Refunds are processed as quickly as possible and in accordance with all federal regulations. It can take up to two weeks for a refund to be issued for a valid credit balance. The Business Office processes refunds, but it is the BJC Accounts Payable Department that issues refunds to students. Students can set up direct deposit of refunds by submitting an ACH Setup Form to the Business Office along with a voided check.
Please note: The business office determines the amount of each refund, but the actual payment of refunds is handled by BJC’s Accounts Payable Department.
Release of Information
If you would like to allow college staff to release your billing, financial aid and registration information to another party (parents, spouse, etc.), please print and complete the FERPA form and submit it to the registration office. Without a completed form on file, we cannot discuss your account with another party even if they are financially responsible for your account.
