WTAMU offers short-term emergency loans to eligible students who find that their anticipated payment method is delayed but still expected.
Emergency loans for tuition and fees are available beginning 10 to 12 days before the first payment deadline, and are available until the 20th class day for Fall and Spring, 4th class day for summer sessions, and 2nd class day for intersessions. Loans are due in full within 90 days for the Fall and Spring semesters, and 45 days for all other terms.
A confirmation number will be shown on the last screen when the loan application is completed. All applicants will receive an email in their Buff email account 1 to 2 business days after applying giving the status of their application.
Interest begins accruing when the loan is applied to the student's university balance as a payment at the rate of 5% annually. The maximum amount for tuition and fees is $2500, or total charges for mandatory tuition and fees if the total is less than $2500.00.
