Pay via Financial Aid
Students who will be receiving financial aid can indicate this in My UW Housing. Financial aid funds are processed by the Bursar’s Office to pay tuition, and any remaining financial aid funds are then paid directly to the student. Students or their authorized payers are still responsible for paying quarterly Housing bills by the due date using one of the payment methods listed above.
