Authorized Users

Student Financial Services provides electronic bills (ebills) and email reminders to you and your Authorized User every semester. You can invite and assign an Authorized User(s) through the Account Suite found in University Information Systems (UIS-Experience) to view online semester bills and balances, receive ebill notices, and make payments or payment plans on your behalf. 

Authorized Users receive an email to create a username and password for the payment portal directly. Please ask them to bookmark the link they receive in this invitation email for future logins. If they forget their password, make 5 attempts and fail, their Authorize User account will be locked and they must wait 20 minutes to try again. Users may also click on the Forgot Password link on the login page to reset. Student Financial Services cannot reset this for a user.
