If you are currently enrolled in classes at a high school or another college/university you must submit official, final transcripts. Final, official transcripts are required to confirm your completion of a degree or specific courses, confirm you still meet the WSSU admission requirements, and determine your status to receive financial aid, attend classes and live on-campus.
Submit an official copy of your final high school and/or college transcript(s) to:

We encourage all students to apply for Financial Aid through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Financial aid awards are made after the FAFSA has been received by WSSU and reviewed for accuracy and completeness. The award process may take between four to six weeks to complete based on your specific situation. The WSSU FAFSA code is 002986.
You may be selected for verification, a process that confirms the accuracy of the information you provided on the FAFSA. Selection for verification is determined by the U.S. Department of Education. Please review the verification information included in the Resource section of the Financial Aid website.
New freshmen are required to live on campus; other new students may choose to live on campus. Housing applications are submitted online. You are required to pay the $135 housing application fee when you submit the online application. Instructions for paying the application fee are included in the online application.
All new students must provide proof of required immunizations and a record of their health history. These are required even if you attended high school or college in North Carolina.
You will submit immunization records and complete the health history through MedProctor. You will need your WSSU email address to complete the MedProctor process.
MEDPROCTOR INSTRUCTIONS
You must enroll in the WSSU-sponsored insurance plan unless you provide proof of other health insurance coverage through the waiver process. Other health insurance includes coverage under a parent/guardian health insurance plan, coverage under your personal plan, or Medicaid. Student athletes may not waive the health insurance.
For fall 2018 the health insurance premium is $1,293.88. This cost will automatically appear on your student bill.
If you complete the waiver process, and your waiver is approved, the cost will be removed from your student bill.
Your student bill will include your tuition, fees, room, board, and insurance premium. There are several options for paying your bill. You will find information and instructions on our Paying for College web page.
