The Department of Education is rolling out FAFSA Simplification, an effort to streamline the application process to make it more user friendly. These updates have caused the opening date to be delayed.

An Affordable Education

Earning your college degree has never been more important, and we are committed to helping you identify funds to invest in your future. Half of WSU Tri-Cities students earning a bachelor’s degree pay ZERO out of pocket expenses for tuition. For those who do take out loans, the average WSU Tri-Cities student debt by graduation is $19,000 – the cost of a reasonably priced car.

Know the FAFSA code: 003800

File your FAFSA in October every year. The WSU school code
for all campuses is 003800.
