Financial Reminders
There is still time to complete the 2016-17 FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid).
Incoming freshman admitted for fall 2016 can now access financial aid award offers through the GoWMU portal. Letters are also being sent via U.S. mail. Please note that your student will only receive an offer letter from WMU Student Financial Aid if you filed a FAFSA. All other aid notifications will be sent through the respective WMU office or department.

Get into the 90s 
Get into the 90s is a social norms campaign designed to correct WMU students' misperceptions about their peers' health-related behaviors and choices.
Social "norms" as they are portrayed in popular culture are often very different than the facts on campus. Some of the actual social norms at WMU are listed below.
- 99 percent of WMU students prefer to date someone who drinks moderately, rarely, or never.
- 97 percent of WMU students stayed with the same group of friends the entire time they were drinking if they chose to drink in the past 12 months.
- 98 percent of WMU students prefer to be friends with someone who drinks moderately, rarely, or never.
Consider sharing this info with your student to ensure a safe and healthy St. Patrick's Day celebration.
