Attached screenshot. 

I can't find an option to select WAF profile in policy settings. How ever I can create a new WAF profile from "Security Profiles" > "Web Application Firewall"

    Ha!  They must have added the WAF to the UTM.  I checked one of my 6.4.6 and your are correct.  You can make a WAF policy but it does not show up in the firewall policy.

    My older 6.0.x does not have the WAF feature (but I have a real WAF -FortiWeb)!  Contact support!

    I got this fixed, contacted TAC. They said "for using WAF you required proxy inspection to be enabled in the respected policy. (when the inspection mode is set to proxy-based you will be able to see WAF)"
