We make the process of setting up payments and benefits easy for both! There are two payment arrangements we can make:

• Standard Tuition Assistance — your employer will pay Liberty University directly for your courses during the semester, within 45 days of being invoiced. • Deferred Tuition Reimbursement — you’ll have a small, initial payment of 1% of the total balance drafted from your credit card or checking account when you complete Financial Check-In (FCI) at the beginning of the semester. The remaining balance will be deferred until 30 days after the semester ends.

“I'm currently stationed in Japan, and all of my professors have been extremely awesome — even with the huge time difference. When my duties make it impossible to get to the internet, they work with me every time. Having God in the middle of my education and staff working together as Christians also has helped further my journey. I'm so blessed to have Liberty University in my life."
