Paying for your online degree

As a PennWest Global Online student, you will not pay fees for on-campus services and, in many cases, are eligible for a competitive, non-resident tuition rate. There are many sources of financial aid—University scholarships and need-based awards, federal loans, state aid or loans, and private scholarships from external organizations or lending agencies such as banks and credit unions.

Each year, PennWest awards $14 million in scholarships to aid our students. To be considered for a financial aid package, you must complete a FAFSA form every year—even if you received financial aid in a previous year. We know how hard you work to pay for college; that's why we work just as hard to make it affordable. Our admissions counselors will help you explore scholarship opportunities, grants, and other aid resources to ensure we develop the most comprehensive aid offer possible.
