Financing your Education

The Husky Promise

The Husky Promise is more than just a promise, it's a guarantee for Washington state students from low-income and lower-middle income families that if you are admitted to the University of Washington, finances won't keep you from reaching your goals and realizing your potential.

The most important thing you can do to ensure you receive the most financial aid possible is to apply for aid on time. This will help the financial aid administrator know how to best award and support your need and ensure consideration of all funds.
