Financial Information
Tuition and Fee Descriptions Standard full-time tuition and fees apply to Traditional and Encore students up to 17 semester hours or 18 hours if the student meets the requirements for the 18th hour (see Workload). Credit hours in excess of the student’s 17 or 18 semester hour limit (exclusive of applied music, music ensembles, or the Summer Leadership Institute) will be charged at the extra load fee per semester hour. Students who are allowed to register as part-time students taking 0-11 semester hours must pay the fees charged for part-time students. Anyone who wishes to audit a class must be enrolled either as a degree-seeking or non-degree seeking student. Once enrolled, a student may register to audit a class during the drop/take period, with the exception of studio art class or laboratory course. The student may register to audit a studio art class or laboratory course on the last day of drop/take and with the written permission of the instructor teaching the course. The class attendance policy for the auditing student will be the same as required for the student taking the course for credit. Auditors are required to pay all fees that may be associated with the course (lab fee, studio art fees, activity fees, travel, et cetera.) Consult the Business Office regarding fees for auditing courses. Evening program tuition is charged by the semester hour regardless of the number of hours taken. Evening students may request permission from the registrar to take one course per term during the day at the evening rate. If the student wishes to take additional courses in the day during a term, she must change her status to Encore and adhere to the standard part-time or full-time tuition and fees for Encore students. Standard full-time tuition includes services for: 1) Health Services: patient care by director of health services, and family practice doctor, referrals to specialists, special clinics through Coliseum Health Care (examples include: ob-gyn, dermatology, hearing, vision, etc.), health library, and health fair. 2) Counseling services: individual appointments, group therapy, referral for long-term therapy. 3) Programs offered through the Mathews Athletic Center. 4) Other wellness related programs and activities sponsored by the Division of Student Affairs or other departments on campus. 5) Technology support: Computer Resident Assistant support for individual support needs, use of printers in the residence halls and around campus, wired internet service in the residence halls, wireless access in select areas around campus. 6) Student ID card for use in the library and for meals. The enrollment fee is payable by all traditional students upon acceptance to the College or upon being readmitted to the College and is due no later than 30 days prior to the beginning of the semester in which the student enrolls. The enrollment fee reserves a space in class and allows a student to continue to register in subsequent semesters as long as the student remains in good standing with the College. The enrollment fee is not refundable after May 1 for newly admitted students. Wesleyan College is a residential community, which requires all unmarried, traditional age students to live on campus throughout their academic career at Wesleyan. Each student is required to submit a housing deposit that reserves a room for that student and serves as a damage deposit. This deposit must be maintained at the initial amount throughout the student's tenure at Wesleyan. This housing deposit is refundable upon graduation from Wesleyan. The deposit refund will be credited first to any balance owed to the College and any remaining amount will be refunded to the student.
