      • Voluntary Prepayment of Tuition
        IMPORTANT NOTE: Most students are NOT required to pay their tuition and fees before coming to 成人头条. However, you can elect to make a prepayment. If you decide to make a payment in advance, it will be used to pay for WSU tuition, fees, on-campus housing, and medical insurance purchased through the University. No portion of your prepayment will be refunded to you to pay for books, off-campus housing, personal expenses, etc. For this reason, you should bring extra money to pay for these expenses. If the amount of your prepayment exceeds the amount you owe, any extra amount will be applied to your next semester's tuition. If you transfer to another school in the U.S., your prepayment will be sent to your transfer school. It will not be sent to you.
