Office Services

Most common student requests can be completed online. The following transactions can be completed in the Hofstra portal at my.hofstra.edu:

• Payments can be made online through the Hofstra portal at my.hofstra.edu 24/7 via electronic check with no additional fee, or by credit card through a third party contractor, PayPath, with a non-refundable service fee of 2.85% (minimum $3) of the amount charged.
• Course registration 
• Review your semester charges
• Accept your financial aid
• Upload missing documents to process your financial aid

If you need to have a financial hold removed from your account, please keep in mind that financial holds due to outstanding account balances are removed when the balance is cleared systematically several times per day during peak periods. A hold preventing the release of a transcript is in place until the payment clears your bank unless payment is made via certified funds.

Students who need to pay with cash should email Bursar@hofstra.edu to schedule an appointment with a representative.

 Printable, electronic forms can be found here for the following transactions:

• Registration form 
• Enrollment verification/certification
• Change of major
• Transcript requests
• All other academic records/registrar forms
