Students whose educational expenses will be paid by a sponsor (defined as outside organizations, institutions, etc; not internal Harvard departments) must submit the following sponsored billing information:

The Sponsored Billing Letter Form for 2008-2009 (PDF) which should be printed on the Sponsor's letterhead.  Please note that forms without letterhead printed on the top will NOT be processed. 

To ensure financial clearance for registration, please send/fax this information NO LATER than May 1, 2008 if enrolling in Summer 2008 or July 1, 2008 if enrolling in Fall 2008/Spring 2009 to Office of Student Financial Services, 708 Huntington Avenue, Boston, MA, 02115. Fax number 617-432-5431.

1) The Sponsor Billing Form is to be completed by the organization or institution providing financial support to the student who will be attending the Harvard School of Public Health during the academic year 2008-2009. The institution will then be billed directly by Harvard University for the expenses incurred in 2008-2009.

2) Sponsors should be specific about the items they have agreed to pay. Sponsors should indicate the academic term or terms to which the award applies (i.e. fall only, spring only, full academic year, full length of program).

The Student Billing Office will bill the sponsor for the items they have agreed to pay for current and future terms. Please note that sponsors cannot be billed for fees NOT charged on the term bill** nor for past terms. When payment is received from the sponsor, your account will be credited with the amount of the sponsor payment.

Each student with a financial sponsor will continue to receive a monthly student billing statement for personal records. DO NOT SEND THIS STUDENT BILLING STATEMENT TO YOUR SPONSOR. Your sponsor will be billed separately and directly. You are responsible for paying items on the bill that the sponsor will not be paying. In addition, if your sponsor fails to pay the agreed upon amount, you will be responsible for paying all charges on your account.

If you have any questions regarding sponsored billing please call the Sponsored Billing Office at (617) 496-8050.

** Therefore, if a sponsor wishes to pay for living/other expenses, the check for those educational costs must go directly to the student.
