Financial Hardship

Students may be eligible to use financial aid to cover the $150 Transfer Confirmation Deposit and/or $50 of the $100 Housing Contract Pre-Payment/Deposit ($50 of this fee cannot be deferred and must be paid out of pocket). Students may apply for this deferment if both of the following apply to them:

- Completed the FAFSA form (studentaid.gov)
- Received the Pell Grant as part of their financial aid award

Exceptions to these Fee Deferment requirements may be made in extreme cases. To defer one or both of these fees, contact the New Student Orientation Office at 414-229-5842 or orientation@uwm.edu. Students are required to meet with a Financial Aid Advisor to discuss the future costs of college before a deferment is granted.
