Faxing to Western Carolina University — FAQ
There is no single campus-wide fax at Western Carolina University. The line for the Office of the Registrar is separate from the one for admissions. Verify the current fax for the admissions office or your target office first. When in doubt, ask Western Carolina University for the office by name.
Label each page with the student's name, ID number, and date of birth. Note the target office — the Office of the Registrar, admissions, or the financial aid office — on the cover sheet. A delivery confirmation then tells you the fax reached Western Carolina University. Clear labeling is what keeps a multi-page request together at Western Carolina University.
The line accepts faxes around the clock; staff processing depends on the office. Processing at the Office of the Registrar generally runs Monday through Friday during business hours. Nothing is processed on weekends or university holidays. Expect same-week handling for routine transcript and verification requests.
The answer varies by document and office at Western Carolina University. Official transcripts are often ordered through Parchment or the National Student Clearinghouse rather than faxed.
