Payment of charges
Registration fees for the fall 2013 term are due and payable August 22, 2013. Billing statements for students registered full time will be processed by July 3, 2013. Students who pay these by August 22, 2013 will receive their class schedules and I.D. validation stickers through the mail. Regardless of whether or not you have been billed, your financial obligation must be addressed in order for you to be cleared for attendance. If you are not cleared for attendance, then you will not be listed on class rosters as authorized to attend. Failure to pay by the due date will lead to a cashier's restriction on your account. A default charge of 1.5% of the unpaid balance is added each month on all past-due accounts. The University requires that all remittances be in the form of U.S. currency and that your check/money order be payable in U.S. dollars through a financial institution with an office in the United States. Students are responsible for any fees charged to the University by our bank for processing checks through a foreign collection agency.

MasterCard/Discover/American Express
The University no longer accepts credit card payments on campus. Credit card payments must be made using CASHNet Smartpay. We accept MasterCard, Discover and American Express cards. If you wish to pay all or a portion of your charges this way, you may pay online by clicking the web payment link below. CASHNet charges a 2.75% service fee for card payments. There is no fee for paying by e-check (ACH).
Please be advised that Visa is not accepted. Visa's rules do not permit the vendor to charge a standard percentage of transactions as a convenience fee. Visa's policy only allows vendors to charge a set transaction fee, regardless of how much is charged on the card. We don't accept Visa due to the varying payment amounts that are charged. Many schools no longer accept Visa cards for the same reason.
Note: Student University ID number and PIN are required for all online payments.
Payment Plans
We at the University of Hartford realize that managing the cost of education is a challenge for most families. Therefore, the University has set up a program called TuitionPay with Sallie Mae. Through our program with this institution, we are pleased to offer you an affordable and convenient payment option for meeting college costs.
The University of Hartford monthly TuitionPay plan allows you to pay current annual expenses in 10 interest-free installments beginning July 1. The only cost to you is an application fee.* Half of your contract amount will be credited to your student account each term. Applications and the proper payment must be received by the published deadline for students to participate in this payment plan.
Please note that you should compare your budgeted amount to the Bursar billing statement. Any discrepancies are the responsibility of the student, and they will be required either to adjust their plan accordingly or, if necessary, make payments through SASC. Visit TuitionPay's website, or call 1.800.635.0120 for details and information about the monthly TuitionPay plan. You can contact Sallie Mae in December regarding a 4-payment-spring-plan option.
Note: Fees and charges are subject to change. For confirmation, please refer to the latest bulletin or contact your respective schools or SASC at 860.768.4999.
*Additional fees may be assessed on late payments.
