Tuition Payment Plan
www.tacoma.uw.edu/uwt/administrative-services/cashier/tuition
How does it work?
The Tuition payment plan option allows students to pay their quarterly tuition in three installments. The amount
of each installment is determined by the student and should be calculated based on the total tuition balance
that remains outstanding. The total of the three installments should equal the total tuition the student account
has outstanding. A $25 fee is assessed at the time of enrollment. All installments must be received prior to the
posted due dates to avoid administrative holds and or late fees.
Who is eligible?
The Tuition Payment Plan is an option available to all students who opt to enroll and do so on or before the
posted enrollment deadline for the quarter in question. Please be advised that late enrollments cannot be
accepted. Completed enrollment forms must be received no later than 5 p.m. on the due date in order to be
accepted into the plan: postmarks will not be accepted.
Dates
The due dates are always the first, third and fifth Fridays of the quarter. If the initial payment is not received by
the first due date, you will not be accepted into the program. The remaining two payments are each subject to
a $55 late fee if they are not made on time.
Payments
Payments can be made at the Cashier’s Office, the Cashier’s Office Drop Boxes, or online at no cost to you by
logging into MyUW, clicking on your "Tuition Statement" and selecting the "Web Check" option. Review the
payment plan enrollment form for complete details.
NEW: If your first payment is made online, your enrollment form must be received prior to 5 p.m. on the first
Friday of the quarter. Please write on the form that you will be paying on online through your MyUW account.
If your payment is not posted on your account by the enrollment deadline, your enrollment will be denied.

deadlines for class or credit changes without a penalty

SFS: Non-UW Scholarships
•
Students need to report all scholarships to the Office of Student
Financial Aid (OSFA), if they were not already reported on their award
notice. Forgetting to report all scholarships can cause problems with
their financial aid award and in some cases may require them to return
some of their financial aid money.
•
Scholarships will reduce a student’s unmet need first, and then loans
and/or work study before any grants or UW scholarships are reduced.
•
Scholarships checks are sent to:
University of Washington, Scholarships
Box 24967
