MACOMB, IL -- Students looking for just the right university for Fall 2019 are in luck, as Western Illinois University continues to accept applications for new students, and between July 4-7, WIU is waiving the $30 application fee for Fall 2019 applicants. Additional orientation sessions will be held Thursday, Aug. 1 for incoming freshmen and Friday, Aug. 2 for incoming transfer students.

In addition to the application fee waiver, Western Commitment and Promise Plus scholarships are automatically awarded to qualified new freshmen and transfer students.

Students who have been accepted, but have not yet attended an orientation and registration event can register for Aug. 1 or 2 through their STARS account at wiu.edu/STARS.
