The summer session is considered an extension of that academic year. Eligibility for the summer session depends on the amount of aid a student received during that academic year. For financial aid purposes, enrollment status is the same as for the academic year. The WSC application form for summer session must be completed and returned to the financial aid office in order to receive an award letter for that session. This application can be completed as soon as a student has registered for the summer session.
Financial aid is subject to change depending upon federal and state appropriations.
Distance Education Students Students who are considered distance education students are those who are enrolled in courses or programs where the faculty are not in the same location as the student. Applying for and receiving financial aid for distance education should be the same process as for traditional students. Since distance education students may choose to enroll in courses at more than one institution at the same time, a home institution must be chosen by the student. The home institution must be the school where you intend to get your degree. This school would be where all administration takes place including where you would apply for financial aid.
