Reduce financial barriers to support employee upskilling
Enhance the potential of your tuition assistance program with Deferred Direct Bill.
Invest in employee education
Combine the benefits of tuition reimbursement + direct billing when you defer payment until after your employees successfully complete their courses -- minimizing upfront costs while also removing the need for reimbursement.

How does Deferred Direct Bill differ from the traditional tuition reimbursement process?
- Tuition fees are not due until after a course is completed.
- Rather than reimbursing your employees for courses they passed, payment workflow stays between University of Phoenix and the employer.
Deferred Direct Bill helps simplify upskilling and provides accessible, affordable education.

Easy to implement
UOPX Deferred Direct Bill follows almost the exact same process as traditional tuition reimbursement programs. Students still need to obtain your organization’s approval, and provide documentation required per your policies, so there’s minimal disruption to your existing workflows.



Streamline with third-party administrators
If your organization uses a third-party administrator for tuition assistance, most providers can accommodate Deferred Direct Bill as part of their workflows.

Delay payments
Payment for coursework completed with passing grades is invoiced directly to your organization after each course is completed. Should your employee not meet the grade requirement of your tuition assistance policy, no payment is due by your organization!
