Tuition and Fees - Fall 2009

Installment Payment Plan and University Credit Agreement

Although all amounts owed to the University of Wisconsin Milwaukee (UWM) are payable on the Fee Due Date indicated, UWM recognizes that students may not make such payments in full on the relevant Fee Due Dates for each semester.  At its discretion and if certain requirements are met, UWM may extend credit to students.  The Installment Payment Plan is available to students who cannot pay their room, meal plan, and tuition & fees by the due date. 

Note:  Study Abroad and Executive MBA fees are not eligible for the Installment Payment Plan.  Kenilworth rent and miscellaneous charges for loft rental, key replacements, parking, etc. charged by University Housing are not eligible for the Installment Payment Plan. 

To use the Installment Payment Plan, you must make at least a minimum $200.00 payment toward your tuition and fees to avoid cancellation for non-payment.  This plan allows you to make payments in two installments later in the semester. 

On August 27, 2009, eligible charges will be placed on the Installment Payment Plan.  The Installment Payment Plan charges will automatically adjust during the first two weeks of classes if you add or drop courses or change any of your room or meal plan charges. 

An administrative fee of 1% will be assessed September 17, 2009, on all amounts placed on this plan.  This non-refundable fee will not change even if your charges increase or decrease. 

Installment payments are due October 9^th and November 9^th, 2009.  View your online Statement of Account on PAWS for tuition assessment, exact installment amounts and due dates, and other charges owed to the University.  Failure to make an installment payment by the due date will result in a Hold placed on your records.  This will prevent release of transcripts and diploma, registration, and additional campus services.  Late installment payments are subject to finance charges of 1% per month on any past due amount.

**No paper bills will be sent to currently registered students.**

This agreement will continue to be in effect throughout your time of study at UWM.  Once you are accepted and your credit remains in good standing, you are eligible to pay on the Installment Payment Plan every semester it is offered.  The Installment Payment Plan is only available for the fall and spring semesters.
