Enrollment Deposit Information

After being admitted to the university students should confirm their intention to enroll by submitting the $100 enrollment deposit. The deposit is fully refundable until May 1st for the fall term and November 15th for the spring term. Enrollment deposits are accepted until we reach our enrollment limit for new freshmen and transfer students. Students who submit their deposit after the enrollment limit is reached are placed on a waiting list and handled on a case by case basis.

Please keep the following in mind:

• The enrollment deposit is not an additional fee. You will be able to "roll" this deposit forward to be used as an enrollment deposit for each term you attend UW-River Falls. When you finish your enrollment, the deposit will be returned to you.


• This deposit is NOT the same as the housing deposit. Information regarding the housing deposit is sent to you directly from the Housing Office (715/425-4444).


• If you change your mind and want a refund of the $100 enrollment deposit you must request it by May 1st for the fall term or November 15 for the spring term. Refund requests should be in writing and should be sent directly to the Admissions Office (112 South Hall, River Falls, WI 54022).


• If the enrollment deposit proves to be an extreme financial hardship, you may request a deferral of the fee. A letter explaining your situation send directly to the Director of Admissions from a school counselor or principal must be on file. If you must ask for a deferral, please do so as soon as possible. If you receive a deferral, the $100 must be paid by the day of registration.
