HGSE Student Aid Portal

Welcome!

HGSE Financial Aid encourages students and applicants to e-mail our office with questions and we will respond as quickly as possible. When e-mailing us please state your questions briefly and directly so we may expedite our response. E-mail is the most secure, confidential, and efficient way to respond to inquiries at this time, and you can find answers to many commonly asked questions on the "Publications and Forms" page of this site after logging in.

Current and prospective students may find full consumer information, disclaimers, and disclosures on the HGSE Consumer Information website.

Please check the "Documents & Requirements" page after logging in, and submit any requirement that has not been received.

If your total payments, including financial aid, exceeds your semester charges you may receive a refund after the start of each semester- check your student account to determine if you expect a credit on your account. If you have a U.S. bank account we highly recommend enrolling in direct deposit to quickly and securely receive a refund.
