Funds from a 529 Plan must be sent to Stonehill by check. You cannot use a 529 Plan account to make online payments and/or to enroll in a monthly payment plan. If you attempt to pay online with a 529 account, your payment will be returned by the bank subjecting you to a returned payment fee.

After receiving the semester bill, contact your 529 plan administrator and request the amount you need for the semester.

Typically half of each institutional and government award is credited to your account in each semester. The entire amount cannot be credited to one semester unless otherwise noted.

State law requires that students taking nine or more credits in a semester carry health insurance and annually provide proof of such insurance to the College. Therefore, you have been charged a health insurance premium for the academic year and must complete and online waiver or acceptance of the insurance at University Health Plans.  The insurance premium on your bill will be canceled ONLY if we receive electronic confirmation from University Health Plans that the process is completed. The standard late fee is charged against the assessed insurance premium if the waiver process is not completed by the payment due date, regardless of whether or not the insurance is waived.

Funds can be added to the Hill Card in several ways. Students can bring cash or checks to Student Accounts in the Duffy Building, Room 103.

As a supplement to our refund policy, Stonehill has partnered with Grad Guard to offer an optional tuition protection plan for those who withdraw for covered medical reasons. The deadline to enroll in this plan is the the day before classes start for the semester. Further details regarding this plan are available by clicking here.

If a situation arises where the College makes an adjustment to the total billed costs, institutional aid will be adjusted accordingly. Changes to institutional charges which would impact the total billed costs could include adjustments to tuition, room and board, and fees. If the adjustments cause total aid to exceed billed costs, a pro-ration of institutional aid would occur to reconcile the difference. For further questions, please contact the Student Financial Assistance Office at 508-565-1088 or finaid@stonehill.edu

Title IV financial aid may be used for allowable charges including tuition, mandatory fees, and room and board charges assessed by Stonehill College. Any Title IV funds awarded to a student in excess of these charges must be refunded to the student. However, with student authorization, Stonehill College can use the Title IV funds to pay for charges on the student’s account other than allowable charges or can hold the funds to pay for charges incurred in a future semester within the same academic year. These authorizations are voluntary and may be revoked at any time, although a cancelation is not retroactive.
