If a student fails to participate in one or more of their courses a return of federal aid may be required. WOU instructors automatically report student participation when they enter a non-passing grade for a student. The WOU Financial Aid Office is not able to directly contact partner school instructors to obtain participation information. In cases where participation information is required from a partner school instructor, the student is notified through their WOU student email.<\/p>\n Financial aid repayment for non-participation may be required:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The WOU Financial Aid Office is not able to directly contact partner school instructors to obtain participation information when a student fails to earn a passing grade.

It will contain instructions to contact the partner school instructor and request the participation information be sent directly to the WOU Financial Aid Office. Due to the time sensitive nature of this process, it is very important that DPP students check their WOU student email regularly after the term has ended. Failure to verify participation may result in the reduction or full loss of financial aid eligibility for the term.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ min_height=”127px” custom_margin=”26px|||||” global_module=”4762″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n In-person services are Monday through Thursday 8am to 5pm and Friday 10am to 5pm. **Walk-in appointments are available on a first-come, first-served basis on the following days\/times:<\/b><\/p>\n\n
