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.
