Financial informationPayment Information and Policies Due Dates for the Academic Year Unrestricted Endowed Scholarships Restricted Endowed Scholarships Billy Graham Center Scholarship Program ExpensesThe expenses at Wheaton are moderate and are kept so by the generous gifts and grants from individuals and foundations and by the income from its endowment. Students pay for about seventy percent of the cost of their education; substantial sums are raised annually by the College to cover the difference between what the student pays and the cost of operation. The tuition rate includes most miscellaneous items for which separate charges are usually made, such as library, student center, health services, and various student activities. Some limitations apply to part-time students. Substantial student aid funds are available for many students from College, government, and self-help sources. No student should fail to apply to Wheaton for financial reasons. All costs listed here are as accurate as possible at the time of publication but could be subject to change. Undergraduate Costs
Service charges are nonrefundable. Course fees for officially dropped courses are refunded as follows: 100% the first week of the semester; 90% the second week; and none thereafter unless approved by the department. Approximate Fixed Costs per Semester
Graduate Costs
Graduate students taking undergraduate courses must pay course fees as listed in the undergraduate costs section. Payment Information & Policies (Settlement of Accounts)All bills are to be paid at the beginning of each semester and received by the established due date shown on each semester bill and in the college calendar. In mid-July and in mid-December, students will receive an email, instructing them to go online and to view and pay their bill. In order for parents to see the bill or statement, the student must sign them up to be an authorized user. Payments can be made online via electronic check (free), and credit or debit cards (a 2.75% service fee will be assessed on this method of payment). Student Financial Services will continue to accept check and cash as other forms of payment. An unpaid account may result in the cancellation of the student's enrollment and will be assessed a $75 late penalty plus a 1˝% charge per month on the unpaid balance. The admissions deposit will be applied to the student's account upon enrollment. Wheaton College offers payment plans for students who wish to finance the cost of education throughout the school year. Visit the Student Financial Services website at: at www.wheaton.edu/Admissions-and-Aid/Financial-Aid/Payment-Processor contact the Student Financial Services at SFS@wheaton.edu for more information. Students with unpaid student accounts are not permitted to re-enroll or receive diplomas and transcripts, until their balance is paid in full. These accounts will be subject to credit bureau reporting after enrollment ceases. Past due balances may be turned over to a collection agency. Accounts that are assigned will be responsible for principal, interest, late charges, and collection costs. .
