Please note, failure to fulfill your payment responsibility by the time/due date could result in cancellation of enrollment.

Please consult the Undergraduate Catalog for more information on this policy.

Has your enrollment been cancelled due to non-payment? The following is a list of important procedures for students who have been disenrolled for non-payment:

• Stop attending each class from which you have been dis-enrolled if you are unable to re-add the same course(s) and make payment arrangements immediately.
• If the department/college advisor enrolls you in a course, please remember to pay or make payment arrangements by the appropriate due dates.

Students are advised to check their myUH accounts daily and make immediate payment arrangements for any charges due. Student financial accounts are dynamic and subject to change due to adding of classes, adjustments in financial aid, parking registration, housing, meal plans, etc.
