DISCRETIONARY EXPENSES
WARHAWK EXPRESS is a convenient way for
students to make school related purchases without the
need to carry cash. Warhawk Express is accepted at
on-campus dining locations, the University Bookstore,
athletic events, University Library copiers, University
Library fines, automated beverage and snack vending
machines, laundry machines, and a growing list of offcampus
merchants and other vendors.
WARHAWK EXPRESS is a pre-paid, stored value
transaction program tied to the ULM ID card. Warhawk
Express deposits can be made prior to the fee payment
deadline or after the fee payment deadline via Banner,
the web-based student information and registration
system or after the fee payment deadline at Student
Account Services or La Capitol Federal Credit Union.
Each time a purchase is made using the Warhawk
Express card, the amount will be debited from the
student’s Warhawk Express account and the remaining
balance will be displayed at the register or on the receipt
so the card-bearer will always know what their balance is.
Unlike Flex-Dollars for use only at any of Aramark’s
retail dining facilities, Warhawk Express may be used
anywhere Warhawk Express is accepted and balances
carry over from semester to semester, as long as the
student is enrolled. Cash withdrawals cannot be made
from Warhawk Express accounts. All Warhawk Express
refunds will be made at the end of the semester.
Exceptions may be made for students who officially resign
from the University. A $10 processing fee will be withheld
