UNH does not send bills through the mail. Bills are posted to students' individual WebCat accounts. Students will be notified through their UNH-assigned e-mail accounts when new bills are posted.  

How to view your bill

Students can authorize anyone they want to access their UNH billing information through Parent Portal -- their parents, a family member, or a friend. Students are completely in charge of who has access, and can change that access at any time.

What are pending items?

Pending items are anticipated credits that appear on your billing statement. These pending items are used to offset the balance due on your account. They may be loans or scholarships which have not yet arrived or monthly payments which are not yet due. Pending items may require further action. For more information go to WebCat and check your financial aid status.

What if I don't pay or pay late?

Non-payment can result in late fees, and may result in students being disenrolled from classes. Any outstanding balance could cause a financial hold which prevents registration and the mailing of transcripts and diplomas.

What are the most common causes preventing me from being financially clear?
  • Unpaid balance on student account
  • Reducing payments by anticipated aid without proper backup documentation
  • Master Promissory Note for federal Direct Loans is not signed
  • Entrance counseling for federal Direct Loans has not been completed
  • Missing Financial Aid documents
I stopped attending classes, can I get a refund?

Requests for refunds of undergraduate tuition and course charges will be considered only if the student completes official withdrawal procedures.

I’m the parent of a student, and I pay the bills… why won’t the Student Accounts Office speak to me about their account?

Account information is confidential between UNH and the student.  The student may grant permission for other people to have access to this information by filling out and submitting the Release of Student Information Permission Form (FERPA).

Who should I call if I have a question about my bill?

Please call Student Accounts at (603) 862-2230

Please note: The Student Accounts Office receives a considerable number of telephone calls.  We try to answer all calls on the day we receive them.  This is not always possible. If your call goes to voice mail, please leave the following information:

  • Name of Student 
  • Student ID# (starts with a 9)
  • Purpose of your call
  • A telephone number where you can be reached
Why is my financial aid not on my account?

If all your paperwork has been received and processed including the Aid Acceptance Form, your bill should include your financial aid as a pending payment. If you are expecting financial aid and it is not reflected on your bill, please call the Financial Aid office at (603) 641-4189 to review your account.

I have already made Payment arrangements (nelnet payment plan, financial aid, veterans benefits, etc). why do I keep getting a bill from UNH?

Bills are automatically generated once a month. You will receive a bill notification every month via your UNH email until your account is paid off (cleared).  Pending financial aid or arrangements with the Payment Plan will generally be reflected in the “memo” section of your bill, you will receive a bill every month until those payments are received.

How to update my student account with an external scholarship award/check i received?

All external scholarship award letters and checks should be forward to the Office of Student Accounts. Please note scholarship checks made out to UNH and the student need to be endorsed by the student before processing. A student signature is required on the backside of the check.  Non-university scholarship funds will not be credited to student accounts until the checks have been received.

External scholarship award letters and checks can be dropped off or mailed to:
