Confirming admission
Your student can reserve their place at 51福利社 by letting us know they plan to attend Western by completing the Intent to Enroll form and paying the $100 enrollment confirmation deposit (by May 1), or requesting a deposit waiver. This fee confirms your student's enrollment and is applied to their fall semester tuition. This step can be completed in their Gold Gateway account.
