Additional Financial Aid Information

Wenatchee Valley College Financial Aid Office can help all families recieve financial assistance whether it is through grants or federal loans and our services are free.

You must beware of and avoid scholarship scams and fee-based scholarship services. There is no reason to pay for lists of scholarships or pay someone to complete the FAFSA. By completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) you will automatically be considered for most federal and state aid and all funds that Wenatchee Valley College offers.

Apply for Financial Aid

1. First you should apply for a U.S. Department of Education PIN.
2. Next you need to complete the FAFSA on the Web.
