Financial Aid

You will know we have received your funds when you get a “Right to Cancel” email–at this point the funds have been released to Student Financials for processing. The Student Financials Office will send you an email when they have processed your refund as well.

As of Fall 2015, financial aid regulations prohibit federal financial aid from paying finance and/or overtime charges.  Once federal financial aid has paid eligible tuition and fees, some students may receive a refund yet still owe a balance because of finance and/or overtime charges.  Payment arrangements would need to be made with UNTHSC Student Finance for the remaining balance to secure a student’s classes.

Please watch your Task tile on your MyHSC portal. If you accepted a federal loan you will have to complete Entrance Loan Counseling and Sign a Master Promissory Note at studentaid.gov before we can request your loan funds.

Please remember your disbursement date is NOT the date you receive your funds.  This is the date we request your funds from the Department of Education.  Reminder! Your Financial Aid will be split evenly between the terms you are enrolled.

Institutions of higher education that enter into a Program Participation Agreement with the Department agree to refer to the Office of Inspector General (OIG) Investigation Services any credible information indicating possible fraud related to Title IV program funds that an applicant, employee, third-party servicer, or other agent of the institution may have engaged in.
