Welcome
At Western Washington University, we strive to support our students with financial assistance through grants, scholarships, Work Study, and loan programs.
We are available by phone, in person or email to assist you with any financial aid related questions year-round. For more complex questions an appointment with a financial aid counselor may be scheduled.
We have many useful tools to help you understand your estimated aid eligibility using the Net Price Calculator, your Cost of Attendance (COA), and how to budget your educational expenses.

In some cases a Professional Judgement (PJ) determination can be made to re-calculate a student's aid eligibility due to a chance in financial circumstances. Situations such as a reduction or loss of income since the tax year associated with the FAFSA, a marital status change for a dependent's parents or an independent student and other unique situations can be considered.

In some cases, the standard Cost of Attendance (COA) will not meet the needs of students. Requests to increase the COA for extraordinary educational costs incurred during the academic year can be submitted. However, the amount already included in the standard budget will be factored into any adjustment.

During your senior year you must apply to graduate. The Registrar's Office will prepare an Official Degree Evaluation showing the courses you need to complete the graduation requirements for your program. Only the courses listed on the Official Degree Evaluation may be used to determine financial aid eligibility.
