Pay online

You may make housing payments online using most major credit cards and electronic ACH. Housing pre-payments may not be paid online via this page; housing pre-payments may only be paid by credit card when the student is prompted for a pre-payment when completing the housing application process.

HFS does not charge a convenience fee for using a debit or credit card online. You will receive confirmation of your payment to the email address you provide during the payment process.

To make a payment, please enter the last name and UW student ID number of the student whose account you are making a payment toward and select "Submit" to proceed with the payment.

If your payment is declined, it is possible that your card has a daily spending limit. Please contact your financial institution for assistance. HFS is not able to assist with declined cards.

Pay online with an international account

HFS partners with Flywire to streamline the process for international payments. Flywire allows you to make payments securely from any country and any bank, generally in your home currency. To pay using Flywire - Select the "UW Seattle Housing and Dining Payment" option.

Pay online with a 529 account

Many 529 College Savings plans now have a digital distribution option (electronic ACH), which saves time and improves transparency with real-time payment tracking. When requesting a withdrawal from your plan, check with your plan administrator to see if a digital distribution option is available.

Pay by mail

We encourage parents, guests and students to use the electronic check method (electronic ACH) to make payments. If you are not able to use electronic ACH, you can pay via a mailed check. 

To submit a pre-payment or housing payment via check, please print and fill out a Check Remittance Form. On the check, write the last name and UW Student ID Number and of the student whose account you are making a payment toward. Please mail the check and Check Remittance Form to:

Note that the U.S. Postal Service has changed its first-class mail delivery time frames, and mailed payments are taking longer to arrive. Please be sure to mail your check in advance to ensure it arrives before the payment deadline.
