If you have questions, reach out to your dedicated WR staff:

Financial Aid (FAFSA) or (WASFA)

All WR students must complete a financial aid file.

Current Year (2025-2026): Ensure this is finished! It covers you through Spring 2026.

Next Year (2026-2027): Apply now! This covers Summer 2026 through Spring 2027.

Apply for Financial Aid

FAFSA or WASFA Income Recalculation

If you have had a significant change to your income you could be eligible for an income recalculation. You will find the income recalculation form on the financial aid website. We use the new information to recalculate your eligibility for financial aid. In many cases WR students become eligible for financial aid grants. Before we process a recalculation, you must have a completed financial aid file. In many cases students who were not originally eligible for regular financial aid become eligible after completing the Income Recalculation process.

Worker Retraining Tuition and Book Assistance:

  • WR grants are designed as a startup fund until other aid is available.
  • Spring 2026: To be considered, your 2025-2026 financial file must be complete.
  • Requirements: You must follow your quarter by quarter Academic Plan. Contact us if you need to change your plan.
  • Eligibility Note: If you receive other financial aid grants, you are generally no longer eligible for WR grants.
