Affordability

Refund/Withdrawal Information

Can an adult student who has other financial responsibilities afford a Whitworth University education? Yes! With Whitworth’s discounted tuition for its evening bachelor’s degree programs, a highly regarded private university education is within reach. 

Even with Whitworth’s competitive tuition and financial aid for working adults, getting a degree is a significant investment. But it’s an investment that pays big returns year after year. University graduates earn, on average, almost double the annual salary of those without a bachelor’s degree.

It’s hard to put a price on the sense of achievement you feel crossing the stage to receive your diploma. Whitworth’s accelerated-format courses get you to graduation day — and to bigger paydays — sooner than traditional university schedules. Start investing in yourself today.

Tuition for the 2011-12 Academic Year
The good news: For all accelerated-format classes, tuition includes all books and course materials, as well as related fees. Books and other materials are delivered to you on your first night of class, too!

Continuing Studies Evening Courses
$465/credit (Tuition includes books and course materials.)

Traditional-Semester Day or "N" Courses
$465/credit (Does not include books or course materials.)

Enrollment in day or evening traditional-semester courses is limited to one course per semester and is subject to advisor approval and space availability.

Several payment options are available at Whitworth, including monthly payment plans, payment by credit card, financial aid, and employer reimbursement. Some payment options are dependent upon how many credits a student takes each semester. For more information contact Whitworth student accounting services.

Employer Reimbursement
Check with your employer about tuition benefits. Even if your company does not have a formal policy of paying tuition benefits, some of our students have received education benefits by showing their supervisors the value their education will bring to their jobs.

If you have tuition benefits through your place of employment, Whitworth will accept payment when your company pays, usually at the end of the term.  All you need is a letter from your employer that states the reimbursement policy.  Take that letter to the student accounts office and sign a promissory note.  If your company reimburses only part of your tuition, we will bill it for the amount it pays if you ask us to; the balance is due upon registration. 

Your only obligation during the semester is to either pay the finance charges that will accrue each month or sign up for our Employer Payment Plan.  For only $50 per semester, we will waive all service charges completely.  Call 509.777.3209 or contact student accounting services for details.

Financial Aid
Financial aid is available for adult students; full-time and part-time students may qualify. Visit the university's financial aid website for more information about financial aid for adult undergraduate-degree programs.
