Western Washington University will electronically transfer your aid in excess of charges to your checking or savings account.
Direct Deposit enables students to receive excess aid funds 2-3 days earlier than a mailed check.
Enrollment forms are available online, from Student Accounts and from the University Cashier. You can enroll at any time.
The disbursement of excess aid to your banking institution is the first day of class Fall, Winter and Summer quarters. Spring quarter may be the first or second day of class.
It is the student's responsibility to verify the deposit has reached their bank account.
Checks
Students who choose not to participate in Direct Deposit will receive a University issued check. All checks are mailed to the student's local/campus address, which is on file with the Registrar's office. If no local/campus address exists, checks are mailed to the student's permanent address on file. Changes to your local/campus address and/or your permanent address, may be made online through Web4U or by calling the Registrar's office. It is the student's responsibility to maintain a current address with the Registrar.
If you have not received your check within fourteen days of disbursement, you will need to contact Student Accounts and fill out a Lost Check Affadavit to have it reissued.
