    Appointments open up approximately one week in advance. When no appointments remain, virtual appointments are full and you should contact us by another method instead (e.g. phones).

    Paperwork can be submitted securely through Wingspan, dropped by the Office of Financial Aid, or sent by fax to 803/323-2557. You can also mail your documents. If you choose to scan and e-mail to finaid@winthrop.edu, instead of document upload, we suggest you black out any private information like Social Security Numbers, because e-mail is not considered secure.

    To submit documents through Wingspan, after logging in to Wingspan, locate the Financial Aid - Upload Docs card to upload your document(s).
