Financial Aid Office

The Financial Aid Office supports current students continuing to apply or those applying for the first time for financial aid. Wesleyan’s need-based financial aid program allows us to meet 100% of the demonstrated financial need of all undergraduate students who seek financial assistance.

FAFSA Update

On January 30, 2024, the U.S. Department of Education announced that institutions will not receive 2024-2025 FAFSA applicant information until the first half of March 2024. Due to the issues with the launch of the new FAFSA, students will not be penalized for FAFSA completion after the financial aid deadline. However, the Financial Aid Office requests that you complete the FAFSA at your earliest convenience.
