Spring Semester

We can't wait to meet you, future TWU grad. Now that you're admitted to Trinity Western University, here's what you need to do next (and when): 

1) Apply for financial aid

Want to qualify for more than your academic scholarship? We offer need-based awards and scholarships. To be considered, you'll need to complete a financial aid application.

2) Pay your enrolment deposit

It reserves your spot and is credited towards your first tuition payment. Planning to commute? Your deposit is $200. Living in dorms? Your deposit is $400. 

Enrolment deposits can be paid by cheque, secure online credit card payment, or other methods. This deposit is due in October.

Note: Paying your enrolment deposit ASAP means you'll qualify to register for class earlier than everyone else. Paying early has perks!

3) Sign up for housing

Planning to live on campus? You'll need to fill out a housing application.

4) Upload your photo

Upload a passport-style photo for your student ID card, which also is your meal and library card, and gym pass. Sending us your photo in advance will ensure that your ID card is ready when you arrive on Orientation Day so you can eat, check out books and use the gym right away.

5) Register for classes

Course registration opens in November. You can register for classes online. More info here.

6) Send official final transcripts to TWU

You need to make arrangements for all of your final transcripts (high school, post-secondary) to arrive at TWU as soon as they're available. (Need more details?

7) Confirm your TWU awards 

Confirming your awards online means they'll be applied toward your tuition payment.

Note: If you are expecting a Canadian Student Loan and would like to apply it towards your first payment, send (fax, email, or mail) a copy of your "Notification Of Assessment" or "Letter of Loan Confirmation to the Office of the Registrar. If your loan is not enough to cover all of your tuition and fees for the semester, you will be required to pay 50% of the remaining balance up front.

8) Make your first tuition payment

The first tuition payment for the spring semester is due December 2, 2016. Once your payment is received, you will be fully registered in your classes. (More details, including payment plans and options, are available on the Tuition Payments page.)

9) Attend orientation 

The semester begins with orientation on January 9, 2017. Resident students can begin moving in at 9:00 am and commuter students check-in at 10:30 am. (View schedule)

Coming from the U.S.? When you arrive to TWU for O-Week, you will need to acquire a study permit at the point of entry when you arrive in Canada. Once you arrive on campus, we will help you sign up for mandatory health insurance.
