Financial Aid Office
Let Us Help
The Financial Aid Office knows that paying for graduate or professional school can be an overwhelming experience for students. It is our goal to provide you, our students, with financial assistance and advice to help you manage the costs associated with your educational pursuits.
The Financial Aid Office will be closed on Monday, December 12th, from 11 am to 5 pm for a Divisional Meeting. We will resume normal hours the remainder of the week.

UNTHSC Application and Awarding Process
For additional financial assistance please select the type of aid: scholarships, grants, work study or loans.
How do you know your loan money is here each semester:
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.
Incoming Students
Please watch your To Do List on your MyHSC. If you accepted an unsubsidized loan you will have to complete Entrance Loan Counseling and Sign a Master Promissory Note at www.studentloans.gov before we can even 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.
DISBURSEMENT DATES for summer 2016/fall 2016/spring 2017
*reminder: disbursement is the day we request your funds, NOT the day you’ll receive them*
The Office of Student Finance handles billing & refunds. Please allow 5-7 business days from the date below for the Student Finance Office to process refunds.
Please also note that after your aid has disbursed, it will “disappear” from your Account Summary until funds have been officially posted to your bill.
