Disbursement


Your financial aid is calculated based on your anticipated enrollment.  Your account will not be credited if you are not enrolled for the number of anticipated hours as shown on your application.

 

     Undergraduates:

  • 0-5 hours  = less than half time

  • 6-8 hours = half time

  • 9-11 hours = 3/4 time

  • 12 or more hours = full time

        Graduates:

  • 0-4 hours = less than half time

  • 5 hours = half time

  • 6-8 hours = 3/4 time

  • 9 or more hours = full time

A majority of scholarships, grants, waivers and loans will be credited toward the student’s university account after all required documentation has been received and all offers of aid have been accepted, declined or modified via PeopleSoft. If a student registers for a different enrollment status than he or she originally indicated, his or her aid will be revised in most instances before disbursement can be authorized. This will, in most cases, delay disbursement of aid to the students account. If the student’s enrollment status is activated (half of the total amount due on the fee bill is paid during the fall and spring semesters and full amount in the summer sessions), the aid may be credited toward the student’s account no earlier than the first day of class. Any resulting credit balance will be issued in the form of a refund check. Please see the following links for more detailed information on the disbursement of your financial aid and the UHV General Refund and Withdrawal Information.


The THECB will mail a check to UHV for recipients of the Robert C. Byrd Scholarship.  Some Stafford or Alternative Student Loans will be mailed from the lender to UHV.

 

You have the right to cancel all or a portion of the loan(s) by contacting our office within 14 days of the date the student was notified of his/her loan disbursement. The funds will be returned to your lender by either electronic funds transfer (EFT) or check.
