Workday Student Support for Current Students

Image that reads Important Student Financial Information

This July, the Project WakeDay team will move student financials activities into Workday, including billing, financial aid disbursements and more. Before that time, students are encouraged to grant Third Party Access in Workday and then take the next step to allow specific permissions to their friends and family. This is highly recommended as it allows them to receive notifications of tuition bills and other payments due.

Some students have granted Third Party Access, but they have not granted access to specific functions, including Make a Payment and more. Please check that you have completed this step.

Step-by-step instructions for adding third parties and allowing permissions are available at this link, and you can watch this video for an overview of Student Financials activities in Workday.

If you are a new student who begins at WFU in Fall 2024, you will have access to Workday approximately 48 hours after Wake Forest receives your deposit or you formally commit to attend WFU. Once you receive your Wake Forest email address, you will be able to sign in using that email. Watch for communications about your next steps.

Please note that your WFU login credentials may be required to watch videos.
