Directions for Accepting/Declining Financial Aid Awards

p. 1, 2, 3

 

MyUHV enables you to check your admissions status, register, check your financial aid, and pay your tuition. These directions walk you through accepting/declining financial aid awards.

 

We recommend that you use Mozilla Firefox as your browser

for MyUHV. Mozilla Firefox is available as a free download at http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/.


 

Important

 

Note that your awards are not automatically credited to your account.  You must accept and/or decline the awards once they have been awarded.

 

Processing can take up to five business days. Check your UHV email account frequently.  You will receive information about your award status via UHV student email.

 

 

Accepting and/or declining financial aid awards takes ten steps. If you accept a Federal Stafford Loan, you’ll have one additional step to ensure that your loan is processed correctly. This step takes place outside of MyUHV and is described in the Important Information box below.


Step 1: Log in to MyUH and choose UHV Self Service.




Haven’t logged into MyUHV before? We suggest that you start by reading the directions on how to log in to MyUHV.

Step 3: Choose Financial Aid.


 

Step 4: Choose Accept/Decline Awards.



 

Step 5: Next, you’ll be prompted to read the Student Disclosure. Once you’ve read the student disclosure, choose OK.
