the Beatrice Auerbach Computer and Administration building. The front offices of Bursar and Registrar have combined to

sign-in at the Reception desk. Students may also check with their advisor to see if they are able to register
on-line.

Answer: You can reset your PIN on-line or contact the Student Administrative Services
Center to have your PIN reset.

Services Center (SASC) at (860)768-4999?

Bursar Payment Information
Question: Where is the credit for my $500.00 Admissions deposit?
Answer: Students who expect to live on-campus pay a $500.00 admissions deposit and
those students with off-campus housing are required to pay a $300.00 admissions deposit. The only portion of your
admissions deposit that will be reflected on the Bursar billing statement is the $100.00 tuition deposit. Please note
we do not reflect the $200.00 fee for commuter student orientation, the
$250.00 fee for resident student orientation, or the$150.00
damage deposit on the Bursar billing statement. The orientation fee covers the student's cost of orientation and
the damage deposit is held on the student account until they vacate housing. The damage deposit is then released
to the account and processed according to the Residential Life deposit guidelines.
Question: How can I get a transcript?
Answer: Complete instructions can be obtained by calling (860)768-4588.
Transcript requests are done through the Registrar/SASC offices and requests must be made in writing. Should you
make your request in person, you will be required to fill out a transcript request form and make payment at the
Student Administrative Services Center. For your convenience, the Express Transactions Window is open
Monday-Thursday 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Friday 8:30 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. Please note the Express Window is closed
from 12:00-2:00 on Monday through Thursday, however you can make your request in the SASC department. If you mail
your request to the Registrar's Office please be sure to mark your envelope for the Transcript Department and
include authorization to charge the necessary payment or enclose a check or money order made payable to the
University of Hartford. Transcripts cost $4.00 for a single copy; if ordered in multiples, $1.00
each additional copy ordered after the first copy. Registrar's office asks for up to ten days for processing. If you
require a "rush" transcript, processed within 3 business days, the cost is $10.00 per transcript. Please note that

Question: I have a loan pending, why am I not cleared for classes?
Answer: We issue a 'memo credit' on student accounts for pending loans as long as all
the proper paperwork has been completed and processed. Please be sure you have properly completed the MPN (master
promissory note). Federal Stafford and Perkins loans require the MPN be completed prior to issuing a memo credit.
Other loans including, PLUS, EXCEL, CT FELP, TERI, CitiASSIST, will not memo until the school has certified the loan.
If you have submitted a promissory note to a lender you may fax this information to our office at (860)768-4886 and we
can review the student account. Include the student name, ID number, name of contact person and telephone number where
you can be reached.
Question: I am waiting for my outside scholarship to be credited to
my account. Do I need to pay the balance due before you receive the funds?
Answer: The University does not consider outside scholarships a payment until the actual check is received and credited on your
account. Therefore, outside scholarships do follow the same payment due dates as tuition payments. You will need to
make sure that they have the current due dates for your tuition. If payment is not expected by the due date, you will
need to pay your account balance in full and can request a refund when the scholarship money is received and your Bursar
account reflects a credit balance.
Question: Where can I get information for my medical insurance
company?
Answer: The Student Administrative Services Center will provide you with enrollment verification. A request for verification form
can be obtained from their office. Please fill the request out in detail and allow 7-10 business days for processing.
Question:
Why do I need a student identification (ID) card and
validation sticker?
Answer: All students are eligible to receive a student ID card. Their
initial card is no charge, however there is a fee for a replacement. The ID card identifies a student as a University
of Hartford student and the validation sticker signifies that the student is in good financial standing with the
Bursar's office. The ID card is used for the following: dorm and meal plan access, library use, flex account access,
use of the Athletic center, among other things. The ID card is issued through the ID office located on the bottom floor
of Gengras Student Union. At the start of the fall semester they have extended hours to accommodate the evening
student. Please call them at (860)768-4829 for specific business hours.
Question: Why didn't I receive my ID validation sticker in the mail
like my friend did?
Answer: ID validation stickers are mailed out to students prior to the
fall and spring terms. Any student who has made their required payment by the designated due dates will have an ID
validation sticker mailed to their permanent home address. A validation sticker may not be mailed if the student does
not make payment by the due date. However, if payment has been received after the due date and prior to classes,
schedules are generally available the first or second business days after students arrive on campus in the lobby of the
Beatrice Auerbach administration building.
Question: Do I need a parking permit if I only take one class at
night?
Answer: Yes. Every vehicle parked on campus is required to carry the
proper parking permit for the lot where the vehicle is parked. Vehicles not showing a valid parking permit for the lot
they are parking in are subject to a parking fine.
Question:
How can I get my books?
Answer:
You can purchase your
books directly at the Campus bookstore or on-line at www.hartford.bkstr.com.
Please contact the bookstore directly at 860-768-4801.
Campus Store: Bring your course confirming schedule to pick out your books and pay
for them in one trip.
On-Line: Avoid the long lines by purchasing your
books on-line. All Fall
Term orders (pick-up and shipping) will be held until the second week in August. At this time they will be
processed in the order in which they were received. Used books are sold on a first come first serve basis.
Requesting DO NOT SUBSTITUTE could result in an incomplete order. If used books are available The Campus Bookstore
will ALWAYS pull them first unless indicated otherwise.
Question: Am I eligible for a Bookstore voucher?
Answer: Bookstore vouchers can be issued to students who have need
based financial aid above the cost of tuition and fees. The only loans considered in assessing the eligibility for a
voucher are Federal Stafford Loans. Loans such as the Federal PLUS, CT FELP and TERI as well as AMS 10-Month payment
plans may not be considered in verifying the eligibility of receiving a bookstore voucher. Students who are eligible
for a bookstore voucher need to come to the Bursar's office, between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. with a valid student
identification card. Students will be given strict guidelines associated with the use of a bookstore voucher.
