WU-View access for current students
Current Students includes any person enrolled in a class at Washburn or Washburn Tech within the past year. This link will take you to MyWashburn where you will sign in, go to the Pay Now tile, then click on the blue PAY NOW button to be directed to the payment portal. If the system then asks for a PIN to sign into WU-View, clear your browser history, close the browser, and try again.
WU-View access for former students
Former Students are those away for more than one year who no longer have access to MyWashburn. Login requires the Washburn ID and assigned PIN (please be sure to capitalize the "W"). A PIN can be obtained by contacting the Business Office at business-office@washburn.edu or by calling 785.670.2033.
WU-View access for authorized users
Authorized Users are those individuals granted access to the student's online WU-View account. Once a valid email address is entered, the new users are notified via email and assigned a PIN. Access is removed if the email address becomes invalid. A Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) profile will be required for newly added authorized users and for any users with no MFA who are adding or removing bank or card information. Users will be directed to a page to select from the following MFA options:
- Authenticator Application (preferred) - Apps such as Google Authenticator and Microsoft Authenticator can be downloaded from the Apple App Store or Google Play and used to provide a verification code to login.
- Text Message - A mobile phone number can be used to receive passcodes to login
- Email Address - A personal email address can be used to receive passcodes to login.
