  • You can pay the deposit over the phone at (307) 382-1613 or through your MyWestern account (click "Student Finance" then click "Account Dashboard" once that page loads-> in the red menu bar click "Deposits" and select "Dorm Deposit".

  • Please note that only $125 of the housing deposit is refundable as the other $25 is a processing fee.  Any fall housing cancellations that occur on or after August 1 will be a forfeiture of the entire housing deposit.  Any spring housing cancellations that occur on or after January 1 will be a forfeiture of the entire housing deposit.  As long as a current housing deposit is on-file with the Housing Department, there is no need to pay an additional deposit each year.
  • Make sure to check your MyWestern. This is where you will find the Housing Handbook and Housing forms to complete!  
  • All students who live in the residence halls must submit a copy of their MMR (2 doses) and Meningitis immunizations (must be given after your 16th birthday) to the Dean of Students Office. Records can be faxed to 307-382-7665 or emailed. You may also bring or mail a copy to us.
