ACTION REQUIRED: Verifying Tuition Deposit for Returning Students

by Betsy Chapman

The Office of Student Financial Services wants to alert parents to the fact that there are some returning (upperclass) students who have unpaid tuition deposits.  These deposits must be paid as soon as possible so that students can be properly enrolled for fall 2013 and keep their on-campus housing assignment.  Parents and family members should urge their student to take the following action (or families can do so if they are third-party payers on DEAC).

———————————

To verify if your deposit is paid, please follow the steps below:

DEAC Authorized Payers:

  • Log into DEAC with your username and password
  • Click on View Accounts (Left pane)
  • Click on Current Monthly Statement (2nd item in the list)
  • The 6/1/13 bill will be visible. If you see $(500.00) in the Fall 2013 column under the Deposits and Prepaid Scholarships Section of the bill then WFU thanks you for your deposit payment.
  • If you do not see the deposit, then please following the steps below to pay via DEAC.

Not an Authorized Payer: Please have your student grant you authorized access to DEAC or have them perform the steps above.

 

To pay the fall undergraduate tuition deposit via DEAC

  • Log into DEAC
  • Click on “Make Payment”
  • Select the WFU Tuition Deposit box (3rd one in list) and click on “Pay”.
  • Choose the term and pick Fall 2013
  • Enter the payment amount of 500.00
  • Click on Continue and enter your payment information
  • You will receive a payment confirmation when the process is complete. 

If your student is not returning to WFU for the fall semester, then please contact the Office of Academic Advising immediately at 336-758-3320.

 

The email below was sent to your student at their WFU email address in February and March 2013.  In order to promote sustainability at WFU, paper deposit invoices were discontinued this year.  Since this is a deposit payment,  it will never show up on a billing statement as a billable charge.

  • Students are reminded that payment of the tuition deposit does not entitle them to registration if they have an outstanding balance with the University.
