Kansas Apply Free Days are for all Kansas residents, including transfer students. Whether you are completing your studies at a community or technical college and looking to continue on to a university or want to transfer from one institution to another, you are covered under the Apply Free Days.
Fee Waivers for Financial Hardship Year-Round
All of our Kansas colleges and universities have application fee waivers for financial hardship during the entire year. As such, if you are struggling to pay an application fee and wish to submit your admission application before (or after) the Apply Free Days, contact the admission office at the college/university you want to apply to for more information or complete the Application Fee Waiver form linked below.
*form does not need to be submitted to KU, KSU, WSU as Fee Waiver eligibility is embedded in their application.
