To use military tuition assistance at Texas Tech University, students must do the following each semester prior to the due date for tuition and fee payment:  

  • Read the Student Business Services information for Third Party Processing at the following website Payment Options | Student Business Services | TTU

  • Completed Third Party Agreement Form to Student Business Services at sbs@ttu.edu  

  • Completed Tuition Assistance Authorization Form to sbs@ttu.edu prior to the bill due date. Please contact SBS at (806) 742-3272 for additional information.  

  • FERPA Student Consent to Release Education Records release form authorizing TTU to release and forward course enrollment information described above to DoD.  

  • Students covered less than 100% by a benefit or combination of benefits, can complete and submit a Military Payment Plan request.  

  • Students wishing to use GI Bill benefits to supplement TA should ensure the "Check if VA Top-Up will be used" box is checked on their TA form prior to submitting to SBS. All documentation for VA benefits must be submitted through the Raiderlink as well.  

MILITARY TUITION ASSISTANCE IS MANAGED BY TTU STUDENT BUSINESS SERVICES

Once Student Business Services has the tuition assistance voucher and Third Party Agreement on file, we will place an estimated payment placeholder on the student's account based on the approved level of benefits.

It is the student's responsibility to notify their military service branch and SBS of schedule changes in circumstances where the military pays based on the student's class schedule.

Military students must pay any charges not covered by tuition assistance by the University's established due date to avoid late fees and holds for balances due.
