First-Year Student Next Steps

Congratulations, you're accepted! What’s next?

Releasing Information to your Family

As a student, your information is fully private and protected, including financial aid and scholarship information. This means ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½¹ÙÍøÏÂÔØ is legally not allowed to discuss your information to anyone other than yourself without your permission. At this point in the process, you may be interested in sharing your information with a third party, such as your parents or a guardian.

To share information with a third party you will need to grant them access. Complete and sign the ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½¹ÙÍøÏÂÔØ Authorization to Release Educational Records form and submit it to the Office of the Registrar with a copy of their photo ID.

Submit to registrar@twu.edu. This step is fully optional.
