Students taking classes at Winthrop this summer may be eligible for financial aid. Summer is part of the 2024/2025 academic year so it
will depend on what aid has already been used in fall 2024 and/or spring 2025. Complete
and submit the Summer Financial Aid Application and we will notify you about any summer aid eligibility. Processing can take up to
4 weeks due to our large processing volume so submit the application as early as possible.
Financial Aid offers for incoming freshmen and transfers began March 10, 2025. Students
admitted after this date are packaged on an ongoing basis (allow approximately 2 weeks
after you are admitted to receive your aid offer). Financial aid offers for returning
students, readmitted students, and all graduate students will be made by late June
2025. Students receive an e-mail when aid offer is available to view in Wingspan.
Make sure you have checked Wingspan for any outstanding items for both the 2025-2026 and the 2024-2025 award years and submit items to the Office of Financial Aid (Wingspan, Self Service
9x - NEW, Financial Aid Dashboard, choose appropriate Award Year, Home). Due to the
volume of paperwork we receive, it can take us several weeks to review your information
so please submit it NOW.
Paperwork can be submitted securely through Wingspan, dropped by the Office of Financial
Aid, or sent by fax to 803/323-2557. You can also mail your documents. If you choose
to scan and e-mail to finaid@winthrop.edu, instead of document upload, we suggest you black out any private information like
Social Security Numbers, because e-mail is not considered secure.
To submit documents through Wingspan, use the following steps once you have logged
in to Wingspan:
In the Self Service 9x -NEW box (right side), click Financial Aid Dashboard.
