Management of student in navision

I am new to Nav and I have joined a project for implementing Nav in management of students. We are having a discussion in my group about which card to use as sudent card. We are having a situation where payments for a student are done by some organization. So we are thinking to use contacts as student card and as customers to be the one that are paying for the students. I dont know if this works, because we want also to keep tracking payments for each student and another case is that a student can be linked with different customer during attendace in the school.


Could anyone please help me,

Thanks in advance
