Review Your Award Letter
Once you’ve submitted your FAFSA
While you are waiting, be sure to apply for scholarships!
Your award letter will detail all the types of aid you are eligible for and the total amounts. The award letter is not a bill. Your tuition bill is a separate document that comes later.
It typically takes several weeks to process your FAFSA and draw up your award letter. You can view your award letter online in Student eServices and you’ll get an email in your WSU email account when it’s ready.

Plan for When Funds are Disbursed
Financial aid disbursement basically means how funds are paid out to your student account.
Before any financial aid overage can be disbursed, you must have an accurate direct deposit authorization on record.
