Financial Aid & Tuition

Financing Your MBA Degree

Next Steps

1. Read the Financial Aid letter for admitted students
2. Review our Guide to Financial Aid
3. Complete the FAFSA (see below)
4. Review tuition & fees

Completing the FAFSA

Students seeking financial aid must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The Wake Forest University School of Business Title IV Code is E00515. Individuals will not be considered for federal student loans until the FAFSA has been submitted to the U.S. Department of Education and a student aid report is received by the School of Business financial aid office. To determine which FAFSA to complete, please reference the chart below.

Once we receive your FAFSA results, we will begin to process them for loan eligibility, which occurs daily on a rolling basis. IMPORTANT: We will communicate your financial aid information using the WFU email that is created soon after payment of your enrollment deposit. Please be sure to activate your account when requested (see below for more detail).

Loan Programs

For additional information on Federal and Private loans, as well as Veterans benefits and other financial aid programs, please consult the Financial Aid section of our public website at: business.wfu.edu/tuition-financial-aid/

Accessing Student Financial Information

Once you have activated your WFU Account (see computing page), you may login to Workday Student Financials to view your student financial account information. Students and authorized payers can make payments and view student account activity in real-time.

Direct Deposit Authorization

All students are encouraged to sign up for Direct Deposit Authorization, to allow for the quick and efficient transfer of funds to your personal bank account. Once you have activated your WFU Account, follow these steps in this link Sign Up for Direct Deposit.

Employer Payments / Sponsored Billing

If a sponsor (i.e. your employer or agency) will be paying all or part of your Wake Forest tuition and/or fees, and the sponsor requires an invoice to be emailed directly from Wake Forest, please visit the Sponsored Billing website and familiarize yourself with Account Responsibility information.

Students attending professional or graduate programs offered by the Wake Forest School of Business or the Graduate Schools must abide by the official Wake Forest University tuition due dates schedule listed below. If a student’s employer is reimbursing or paying for their educational expenses and that reimbursement falls after the due date, the student must contact their school’s Office of Financial Aid for information regarding a student loan or other means to cover expenses for the first semester of enrollment until they can receive reimbursement from their employer. Failure to have balances paid by the tuition due date may result in an account hold or class cancellation.

Tuition Due Dates

Fall Semester – August 1

Spring Semester – December 1

Summer Semester – June 1

See Student Financial Services for more information on university-wide policies related to student billing, payments, and refunds.
