Steps to applying for financial aid
Step 1. FSA ID
Create your Federal Student Aid ID:
- FSA ID用于在第二步中签署FAFSA，以及某些联邦财政援助文件
- 学生将需要一个FSA ID，并且每年使用相同的FSA ID.
- If the student is dependent, one parent will need an FSA ID. 父母每年将使用相同的FSA ID，并将为他们所有的孩子使用.
Step 2. FAFSA
每年完成并提交联邦学生援助免费申请(FAFSA).
- 鼓励学生通过互联网填写和提交FAFSA http://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa. 纸质申请可根据教育部的要求拨打(800)4-FEDAID.
- For maximum aid, 在你计划参加WWU的学年之前的4月30日提交FAFSA.
- Remember to provide the WWU School Code (003799) on the FAFSA so your information may be released to WWU.
- FAFSA在学年之前的10月1日可用，并使用上一年的税务信息. For the 2023-24 school year, the FAFSA is available October 1, 2022, and uses the 2021 income tax information.
Step 3. Complete and submit your WWU Financial Aid Application
- 学生可以在网上填写世界大学经济援助申请0swwi.sos-livres.com/aid-application. You will need your myWWU log in information.

Step 4. Verification
NOTE: 联邦政府挑选大约三分之一的援助申请者进行核实. 只有被通知已被选中进行验证的学生才需要完成以下程序:
- Download a Verification Worksheet. Complete and return the form as instructed.
- You can use the IRS Data Retrieval at http://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa 更新您的FAFSA与IRS验证信息或邮寄您的IRS税务记录到沃拉沃拉大学. 如果你没有申报，也不会申报，你必须填写一份非申报表格.
- 如果你是单身且年龄在24岁以下，你需要你的父母使用国税局的数据检索 http://studentaid.gov/h/apply-for-aid/fafsa 更新您的FAFSA与验证信息或让您的父母邮寄他们的国税局纳税记录到沃拉沃拉大学. 如果你的父母没有申请，也不会申请，他们必须填写一份非申请表格.
- You must sign the form under Step 3. 如果你是一个受抚养的学生，你还必须有一个家长在表格上签字. 填妥的表格和所有必要的税务文书可以邮寄到学生金融服务或传真到(509)527-2556.
NOTE: An IRS Tax Transcript is obtained from the IRS. Copies of the 1040 tax forms are not acceptable.
Step 5. Financial Aid Award
After you have submitted all required documents, 学生金融服务部将颁发经济援助奖.
Your award will include:
- An award letter detailing your financial aid package.
- 一个个性化的财务估计计划，显示每个季度的费用明细和每个资助来源的经济资助，这些资助将记入你的学生账户. 财务计划会给你估计的首付款和每个季度的月付款数字.
Unless otherwise noted, 财政援助奖励在秋季每季度支付三分之一, winter, and spring. 每次助学金发生变化时，学生都会收到新的奖励信.
Step 6. Loan Promissory Notes and Entrance Interviews
如果学生金融服务确定你有资格获得贷款, including the Federal Direct Loan, the Federal Nursing Student Loan (NSL), or Institutional Loans, you will need to complete the following:
- 本票-您符合资格的每笔贷款的本票将以电子方式分配给您. 在完成注册之前，您必须在表格上签名. Make a copy of the form for your record keeping.
- 入学面试-你所借的每一种贷款都需要入学面试. The interview needs to be completed online. 检查你的获奖信，以确定你必须完成哪些入学面试.
- 贷款参考表格-适用于直接贷款和校园贷款, you'll need to complete the Loan Reference Form. This will also show up on your myWWU to-do list. Make sure you list three references at different addresses.
