💰 Missing scholarships on your bill? Don't panic!

Before reaching out, take a few minutes to check these two common issues:

✅ Have you completed all required acceptance steps in Scholarship Manager?

✅ Are there any outstanding Financial Aid Requirements in your myWCU Action Center?

Both can prevent your scholarship from appearing on your student account.

Take a moment to review your accounts today—it could save you time and help ensure your scholarship is processed as quickly as possible.
