Instructions for Banner and Nelnet Proxy Access
Banner Proxy and Nelnet Proxy (Payer) Authorization Process
The student will need to initiate two (2) authorizations for each Proxy - once for Banner (FERPA) and once for Nelnet (view/pay bills).
- Once Banner is authorized by the student, the proxy will receive a Banner proxy confirmation email from studentaccounts@davidson.edu.
- Once Nelnet is authorized by the student the proxy will receive an email from Online Campus Commerce. The proxy must complete the set-up steps in this email to gain access to Nelnet.
Please check your junk or spam folders if you do not receive set-up emails within a couple minutes. Company firewalls and Earthlink may block these emails.
Why Do I Need Both Banner and Nelnet?
Banner Proxy
- Gives permission to the Proxy to speak in detail to Donna Baysinger & Kristen Harwood in Student Accounts, as well as discuss financial aid awards with the Financial Aid office
- Gives access to the IRS 1098-T Tax Form
- Proxy will receive all billing emails sent by our office. If no Proxy, only the student will receive a bill.
Not authorizing a Proxy will significantly limit the information the school can discuss with anyone aside from the student. Although not required, we strongly encourage all key people to become authorized as a proxy for their student.
Nelnet Authorized Payer
- View Billing Details (Charges, Payments, Grants, Scholarships and Loans applied to account)
- Make Payments on Account
- Set-up Monthly Payment Plan
Students who do not set up Nelnet Authorized Payers are fully responsible for making their own on-time payments each semester. The deadlines are:
- Fall = July 25
- Spring = December 1
Late fees and interest can begin July 26 for Fall/December 2 for Spring.
