Adding Authorized Parties

Students have the option through Nelnet to add an authorized party to their student account. An authorized party will be able to view the student account, make payments on behalf of the student, or set up a monthly payment plan. An authorized party will also receive a billing statement each semester as well as a monthly billing statement if there is a balance due. Setting a person up as an authorized party also allows Student Accounts to discuss a student's account with that person. Please note this is only for matters related to the student account.
