2009-2010 Financial Aid

Adult Access Award (AAA)
This is a grant--not a loan--funded and administered directly by SCE. The purpose of the AAA program is to make Wittenberg charges more manageable for students who do not have the benefit of employer or VA benefits. AAA's come in amounts of $78 or $56 or $35 per credit, depending on need, up to 12 credits per semester.

We calculate your eligibility for the AAA using our own income guidelines, more realistic than those used for government aid. For instance, if you're single and had a gross income under $18,580 for the most recent year, you should receive the maximum award of $78 per credit. If you're married with a child, you can make up to $65,690 and still qualify for an award.

This award is real and significant. Students receiving the maximum AAA have an effective tuition less than what they'd pay at a state university--even with no other aid deducted. The AAA can be added to other grants, resulting in substantial--or even total--coverage of tuition charges. A single-sheet form is all it takes to apply, and this application covers every term of the year. Click here to download form. The review process is a matter of minutes.

Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship

Transfers who are members in good standing of this national honorary society for community college students can qualify for a half-tutition scholarship. This award applies to all terms and is renewable annually so long as the recipient maintains a cumulative Wittenberg GPA of 3.2. The PTK award can be combined with other forms of grant aid to a maximum of tuition and fees plus a book allowance of $100 per course. To date, 35 PTK Scholarship recipients have enrolled at Wittenberg. Click here to download form.

Flexible Payment Options

We have designed our payment system to help our students manage their money for college studies with maximum convenience and flexibility.

First, we do not require tuition payment at registration. Your sole financial outlay as a new student is the $40 Admission fee (deferred for on-line applicants). Thus, most of our students register weeks or months prior to each term, without concern for coming up with significant sums. Once you receive a statement from our Student Accounts Office, you have three options:

OPTION ONE Pay in full--including a Student Loan check.

OPTION TWO Pay in installments or in full by the eighth Friday of the semester. Use the amount and frequency of payment that suits your budget.

OPTION THREE Pay after the term. If you receive either employer tuition coverage or VA benefits, you can choose to defer your payment until the third Friday after the semester. You must complete a Deferred Payment Agreement.

Failure to pay by the due date for Option Two or Three subjects the student to a $100 Late Payment Fee and the Inceptions of a 12% Per Annual Finance Charge. The Student also incurs a hold on an subsequent registration and is barred from obtaining an official transcipt.

MasterCard/VISA/Discover/American Express
You can use any of these credit cards for full or partial tuition payments and for books and supplies.
