PAWS (How To) Update Mailing Address

Anytime UWM needs to mail an item to you, such as a diploma or a financial aid refund check, they will ONLY send it to your Mailing Address as listed in PAWS. It is important to keep this address current, especially if you’re an International, Online or Distance student.

To edit your PAWS Mailing Address:

  1. Log in to PAWS
  2. Under the blue Personal Information header, click in the drop down menu and select Addresses, then click the blue arrow button
  3. You can edit the current Mailing Address, or you can ADD A NEW ADDRESS
  4. For a new address, fill in the new information and select an effective date
  5. You can categorize multiple addresses as Mailing, Home, Business and Billing
If you live in a on-campus residence, your Campus address will appear automatically and you will not be able to edit it.
In addition to your physical address, you can update phone numbers, non-UWM email addresses, and emergency contacts. Log in to PAWS and select one of these drop down options under the blue Personal Information header as you did to update your mailing address.
