Enrollment Deposit

You’re required to pay an enrollment deposit of $50.00 to hold your spot in classes, and if living on campus, assign you a room. It is not an additional fee and will be credited to your first semester’s bill. You can pay via credit card by calling the Admissions Office at (207) 834-7600 (toll-free: 1-888-879-8635) or online through your Student Center. You can also mail a check or money order to:

To waive your enrollment deposit, speak to your Admissions counselor or submit an enrollment deposit waiver request today!

Student Health Insurance

A new change in the health insurance verification requirement for students enrolled at University of Maine System (UMS) schools will take effect on August 1, 2021. The UMS student health insurance page outlines your options for accessing health insurance coverage and information about free wellbeing resources if you are not already covered under another plan. Please note: some University programs, such as allied health, aviation, and intercollegiate athletics, require health insurance for program participation. These changes do not apply to Graduate Assistants and International students. For additional information, please contact the Business Office at (207) 834-8650 or umfkbus@maine.edu.
