Reserve your spot now
Our deposit deadline for the fall semester is May 1. A $200 tuition deposit must be made to reserve your spot. Students who deposit by February 15 will be granted Summer Orientation and housing placement priority. You’ll also gain access to our student portal—your one-stop shop for email, financial aid, housing applications, and more.
It's never too early to start thinking about financial aid
Our financial aid application process begins October 1. Visit fafsa.gov with your PRIOR year taxes and our school code, 003842, to complete your FAFSA. Financial Aid packages are released to accepted students in December. If you’re accepted after December, your package will be released following the aforementioned steps.
Get priority housing selection
Housing requests begin in January. After we receive your tuition deposit, you’ll be able to apply for housing. Log into your student portal, pay your $300 non-refundable housing deposit, and complete the application. In it, you’ll be able to select a meal plan and connect with roommates. Students who complete the housing application by February 15 will have priority housing selection.
Falcon Days
Falcon Days are an optional, but a highly encouraged part of new student orientation. These days are designed for for all new incoming falcons, whether you're a transfer student or incoming first-year student. The goal of Falcon Days is to provide all the tools you need to feel prepared for your life as a student. Learn about residential and commuter life, get your financial aid questions answered, and connect with resources that will aid your transition to CUW.
