Virginia Wesleyan has adopted a wide variety of measures to remain affordable and financially support its students. Efforts include freezing tuition and fees for the 2018-2019 Academic Year; establishment of an on-campus student work program; launching of the Batten Honors College, which fully or partially funds 40 new academically talented students each year; widening access to early- and dual-enrollment programs; and expanding institutional grants and scholarships.
嫩草影院 offers competitive financial aid packages and assists students in identifying other sources of aid as well, with 98 percent of students receiving some form of financial aid. Special discounted tuition is also offered for students in the Evening and Weekend Program and 嫩草影院 Online, where rates are almost 75 percent less than tuition for traditional day students.
