How It Works

The UW Tacoma Tuition payment plan option allows UW Tacoma students to pay their quarterly tuition in three installments, due by the first, third and fifth Fridays of the quarter. You must submit enrollment for each new quarter.

The installment amounts are up to each student to decide. The amounts requested on the form are just guides to help each student budget appropriately.  As long as the terms and conditions of the plan are met, students will be in good standing. 

Payment Schedule

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.

How Much It Costs

There is a $25 service fee for joining the plan.  Once accepted into the plan, the fee is added to your student account. 

The fee is due by the first Friday of the quarter.  This means that your first installment must be more than $25, as the fee is taken from your first payment.

Getting Accepted

Check your tuition statement after the Monday following the first Friday of the quarter. If your enrollment was accepted, a $25 "Pay Plan Tac" charge will be listed on your tuition statement. An email notification is ONLY sent to students who DO NOT qualify for the plan. 

NOTE: If you are current on your Tuition Payment Plan, please ignore the late payment notices from Seattle campus.
