Questions?

If you’ve been accepted to Warren Wilson and are ready to commit, please pay your $300 enrollment deposit online as soon as possible. Your deposit is nonrefundable and will go straight to your first semester’s bill. Note that you will need to have or setup your WWC Admissions Portal login. Can’t get your login to work? Email us and we’ll be glad to help.

Once you’ve logged in, fill out the Offer of Admission Reply Form (if you haven’t already). After that, you will see a new item on your Application Status Page that says, “Enrollment Deposit – Submit Payment for $307.80 USD,” which is where you can pay online with a credit card. (The additional $7.80 is a 2.6% processing fee for credit card payments.)

​​​​​​​You can also send a check in the mail made payable to: Warren Wilson College. Send it to:

Please put the student’s name on the memo section of the check. You’ll receive a confirmation email when we receive it.

Complete the FAFSA, and (if applicable) verification process and/or North Carolina residency determination. (Domestic students only – International students do not need to complete a FAFSA.)

• If you have not completed the FAFSA, you will only be eligible for merit-based scholarships.  If you would like to apply for need-based aid, including federal, state, and institutional aid, then you must complete a FAFSA.
• If you are selected for FAFSA verification, you must complete that process before you receive a final financial aid offer.  Note the verification process can can take weeks — don’t procrastinate!
• North Carolina residents must complete and be approved for NC residency on the state NC Residency Determination Service (RDS) website before being eligible for NC need-based aid and the Warren Wilson College NC Free Tuition program.
• If you’re accepting your students loans, you must complete all loan paperwork before funds can be disbursed.
