Financial Settlement
Account statements are available on MyCampus (www.mycampus.umhb.edu) 24/7. Paper statements are not mailed. Prior to the start of each semester, students are required to Confirm Your Financial Settlement using MyCampus. During the Confirm Your Financial Settlement process, students identify how they intend to financially settle account charges for the upcoming semester as well as agree to all terms and conditions of registration.
Settlement dates are established and communicated each semester. For 2024-25, tuition, fees, and room & board charges are due by July 15 for the Fall semester and December 15 for the Spring semester. Students receiving any type of financial aid (scholarships, grants, loans, campus work programs, etc.) must complete all financial aid documents by the due date each semester or at the time of registration if the due date has passed. Corrections, adjustments, and / or charges associated with schedule changes after the settlement date are due and payable at that time.
Payments may be made on the MyCampus site with a credit card - Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discover (credit card convenience fees of 2.75% will apply) or E-Check. No payments are accepted over the telephone. For any check or e-check not honored by a bank, a returned check fee of $30 will be charged and check writing privileges on campus may be revoked.
Books and other supplies are generally not included on student account bills. Students should have funds available for these expenses. Students with excess financial aid can use a book voucher for textbook purchases at the UMHB Campus Store.
Exclusive arrangements have been made with Nelnet to offer a monthly payment plan option. The monthly payment program is not a loan and bears no interest. An enrollment fee of $40* per semester enables the payer to make equal payments to cover projected semester costs in five equal installments based on plan offering dates.
*Life insurance which covers the unpaid contract amount is included with this enrollment fee.
The payment plan budget is determined by subtracting all financial aid (including scholarships, grants, campus work, if applied to account balance, and loans) from the total of tuition, fees, and room and board. Books, commuter meal plans, trip fees and other personal expenses may not be budgeted and must be paid for at the time they are incurred. Students may call Nelnet toll free at 1-800-609-8056 or contact via the web at https://mycollegpaymentplan.com/umhb to assist in calculating monthly payment requirement. If a student is dropped from the monthly payment plan due to nonpayment, the balance owed on the student’s account is due immediately.
The University reserves the right to withhold a student’s access to campus services, including MyCampus, MyCourses and UMHB email, and to restrict a student’s participation in university events, including commencement, for failure to make complete payment of a student account. Additionally, UMHB may administratively withdraw a student for failure to demonstrate proper responsibility in the handling of financial matters as related to the University.
UMHB utilizes the UMHB Sadermail account as the official means of communicating account notices to students. It is the student's responsibility to regularly check their Sadermail account.
