Pay online
You may pay housing payments online using most major credit cards and ACH payments. Housing deposits may not be paid online via this page. Housing deposits may only be paid by debit card, credit card, ACH, or Flywire when the student is prompted for a deposit 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 UW student ID number and preferred last name of the student whose account you are making a payment towards and select "submit" to proceed with the payment.
To view the student’s statement of account for the last 90 days and student balance, please enter the UW student ID number, preferred last name of the student, FERPA pin, and FERPA email. The FERPA data is information that the student enters into their account to grant you access to view this data.
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.
