The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA®) has to be completed each academic year in order to receive any federal and state aid, most institutional aid and most scholarships.
To ensure aid is available to charge tuition, fees and books, the FAFSA® and any required paperwork should be submitted by the following Wake Tech priority deadlines:
Fall 2024
*Fall 2024 tuition bills will be available after July 1.
You must be registered for courses before you can enroll in the payment plan. Pending financial aid may create a credit balance on your account and prevent enrollment in the plan.
Nelnet charges a $25 nonrefundable enrollment fee each semester you participate in the plan. The fee is added to your first payment. Once enrolled in the plan, subsequent payments are drafted automatically on the payment due date.

To receive a refund, Wake Tech must receive funds from the funding source by the date specified. If you are awarded a Direct Loan, you must complete entrance counseling and sign the Master Promissory Note and acknowledge the Financial Aid Terms and Conditions before funds are released. You also must be enrolled for at least six credit hours when your funds are disbursed.
If you are taking courses in a combination of sessions that include second eight- or five-week , your financial aid will in most instances be paid in two disbursements.
If a student does not claim a refund that has been issued, the disbursement will be voided and the funds returned to the appropriate federal or state agency.
Students can use financial aid funds to purchase required textbooks and supplies for their courses during these windows:
