UHD Financial Aid and Scholarships

Have you noticed changes on your myUHD portal? 🚀

🌟Understanding your myUHD account is important, especially after your financial aid has disbursed. Understanding the number on your "Term Total" will indicate if you owe a balance or may be anticipating a refund. If you have "Total Amount Due" we suggest having payment arrangements in place, so your courses are not dropped by the payment deadline.

⭐You can set up a payment plan through your myUHD portal or you can contact the Cashier's office at [email protected] or 713-221-8196 for further assistance.

🚀 Today is the first day of fall disbursement. During the disbursement process you will see your financial aid temporarily disappear from your account. Don't panic! This just means financial aid is moving from pending to disbursed. 👨‍🚀
