谁会得到经济援助? 几乎每个人都.
Almost 90 percent of WWU 学生s qualify, and the average annual award is about $25,690. So even if you think you won't be eligible, apply anyway for three good reasons:

- It's the same federal form for every college and university.
- 这是获得经济资助的唯一途径.

我能得到多少经济资助?
威尼斯人彩票直营 fills the gap between what college costs and what you and your family can afford to pay, 使基督教教育成为可能. Here's how the aid you will qualify for is calculated:
[出勤费用] - [预期家庭贡献] = [财务需要]
出席费用: That's the price tag for a year at the college you're considering. 它包括学费等固定费用, 住房和食物, 以及其他学生费用和可变费用. The higher the cost of attendance, the more financial aid you're likely to get. 查看预估费用.
期望家庭贡献: This is the dollar amount that you and your family can reasonably be expected to contribute toward college. This amount is determined by the FAFSA (the Free Application for Federal Student Aid) and is calculated by the federal government, 不是WWU. It is 争论的. If you feel that the FAFSA results don't reflect your unique financial situation, you can dispute them through a process called "professional judgement." This process gives the WWU financial aid office the authority to take into account your unique financial circumstances and compensate for them.
- You can estimate your expected family contribution by using this EFC计算器.
- If you believe that the EFC doesn't accurately reflect your specific financial situation, call us to talk about the professional judgement process and what additional documentation is required.
Some of the situations WWU can consider as part of a professional judgement:
- There are other children in elementary or secondary school that parents paid tuition. 这与FAFSA的数据是同一年的.
- 父母’ combined income has decreased, 或者预计会减少自FAFSA使用的年份以来.
- Student’s income (or the 学生 and spouse’s combined income, 如果已婚)减少, 或者预计会减少自FAFSA使用的年份以来.
- 家庭有不寻常的开支:
- Unusual medical or dental expenses are defined as the amount that exceeds 11% of the parents’ “Income Protection Allowance”
- Maintaining two households in different cities – document the expense of maintaining the secondary household
- Unusual dependent care expenses, including eldercare expenses

- If any of these circumstances occurred, please call (509) 527-2315. We’ll talk with you on how to document the change:
- Parent divorce or marriage since the year of the FAFSA data
- Parent has gone back to school and has been accepted into a degree program (not just taking occasional classes)
- Your income changes drastically each year, and you want to request “income averaging”
- A one-time capital gain, typically from the sale of an asset
- 家长无法提供信息. For example, long-term estrangement, incarceration.
财务需要: The difference between the cost of attendance and the expected family contribution. It is offset by financial aid, which includes grants, 奖学金, 贷款, and work-study.
