5. Final Steps

    • Pay tuition and fees by the Payment Deadline for that semester. Paying attention to these deadlines ensures that you are not dropped for non-payment. You are responsible for all payments, regardless of forthcoming financial aid or scholarships. 
    • Select how you wish to Receive Refunds from Weatherford College. Failure to complete this step will delay any refunds you may receive.  
    • Purchase or rent textbooks. These are required for all WC courses. Textbooks can be purchased or rented in person or by phone at:

If the course utilizes Day One Access, there will be a small, green circle, with a dollar sign in it next to the course name in the course catalog during registration.  If you have questions regarding Day One Access or would like to opt out, please contact the bookstore at 817-598-6286.
    • Get your Parking Pass. Campus PD will issue your parking tag and provide instructions for student parking on campus. You will need to complete the Student Parking Registration form before visiting campus PD.
    • Have your photo taken for your student ID.  Student IDs are made in the Library and the Coyote Den.
