Refunds FAQ

How do I receive a refund of unused monies associated with tuition, fees, and/or financial aid from the University of Houston?
If you have a credit balance on your account as a result of financial aid “feeding” to your account; then that money will automatically generate a refund to you without any action on your part. If the credit balance on your account is created for another reason then you will need to sign in to your myUH self-service account and request the refund. For students who pay with credit card, their credit refund will apply back to the original card.

If you are a parent/borrower with an approved Parent PLUS loan that requested refunds to go to yourself instead of the student, a check will be mailed to you at the address submitted in the Parent PLUS application. If you select the refund to go to the student during the Parent PLUS application, it will be sent to the student’s selected refund preference.
