If you did not pay at that time you can use our online payment form or send a check payable to University of New Hampshire and drawn on a US Bank) Paper Application: Did you send a check with the application? If not you can pay online using the online payment form.

Online application: Did you completely fill out the online application and hit the Application is Complete button? (You would have then been asked to pay the application fee online) Paper Application: Please fill out and send in both copies of the application that are included in the packet.

Did you request the three recommendations, using the forms from our website's forms page? Instruct the referee to seal the envelope and sign across the seal before returning the recommendation to you. Enclose the three sealed recommendations with your completed application packet. Xeroxed, faxed, or emailed letters are not acceptable nor are letters from relatives. Placement credentials over three years old may be accepted as one letter of recommendation.
