Please use this as a guide for financial planning. 正澳门六合彩开奖直播 has determined total Cost of Attendance for the 2024-2025 academic year based on direct and indirect costs for dependent students. All federal, state, institutional and outside funding, in combination with loans and work-study, cannot exceed your total cost of attendance.

Direct Costs

DIRECT COSTS are the expenses charged to you by 正澳门六合彩开奖直播 and used when calculating your aid offer. These are estimated numbers pending approval from the Board of Trustees.

*Please note; Off Campus costs apply only to transfer students; First-year students are required to live on campus if not commuting from home (within a 50 mile radius).

INDIRECT COSTS are estimated expenses that you may incur each year. These costs are included in the cost of attendance for planning purposes but are not billed by Wilkes University.

In addition to the general university fee, other fees may be applied depending upon major and/or course registration each semester; these fees may include, but are not limited to parking, laboratory, and course fees.
• Books & Supplies: Required undergraduate textbooks, lab manuals and access codes will be paid for through our Colonels are Covered program. Additional supplies that cannot be returned and reused will need to be purchased by the student, such as lab goggles, art supplies, dissection kits, molecular model kids, engineering kits or nursing kits.
• Commuter Meal Plan: This is available for an additional fee to interested commuter students.
• FAFSA Corrections and Updates: Any changes or updates made to a FAFSA by the student or 正澳门六合彩开奖直播 on behalf of the student may impact aid eligibility, which would create an adjustment to a student's financial aid. Information on how to review and correct your FAFSA are provided by .

All requested documents must be submitted to the Office of Student Financial Services within 30 days of the notice. Adjustments to financial aid may occur as a result of verification, in which case students will be notified via email.

Pennsylvania State Grant: Pennsylvania residents are considered for this grant if they meet eligibility requirements established by the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency (PHEAA) and complete the FAFSA each year before May 1 of the academic year. PHEAA may require additional documentation, as 正澳门六合彩开奖直播 does not determine the amount of this award and simply acts as the liaison between PHEAA and the students.

Federal Direct Loans are included in your aid offer. Direct loans are issued in the student鈥檚 name and must be repaid by the student. To determine eligibility, you must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) each academic year.

The two types of for students are:

1. Direct Subsidized Loan: The interest will not accrue (accumulate) on this loan while you, the student, are enrolled. The interest will begin to accrue when you are no longer enrolled. You are not responsible for payments on this loan until after you are no longer enrolled at least part-time. You must demonstrate financial need to be considered for a subsidized loan.
2. Direct Unsubsidized Loan: The interest will accrue (accumulate) on this loan while you, the student, are enrolled. Financial need is not required to obtain an unsubsidized loan.

Eligible loan funds are factored into the financial aid offer and the net amount of the loan (after the origination fee) is included in the financial aid calculation on the aid offer. Students who plan to enroll at Wilkes will be required to either accept or decline their student loan(s).

Interest Rate and Loan Fee

Interest is additional money that you pay to a lender as a cost of borrowing money. Direct Loans are "daily interest" loans. On daily interest loans, interest accrues (adds up) every day. The fixed interest rate is 6.53% for undergraduate federal Direct student loans disbursed on or after July 1, 2024, and before July 1, 2025.

All federal direct loans are charged a loan fee. The loan fee is 1.057% for federal student loans (subsidized and unsubsidized) through Sept. 30, 2025. The origination fee is subtracted from the actual loan amount and, as a result, the lesser amount (net amount) is shown when the loan funds are received by Wilkes. For example, a student who borrows $3,500 in a subsidized loan will see $3,463 as the amount disbursed to Wilkes for the 2024-2025 academic year.

The interest rate and loan fee are determined and announced by the federal government on July 1 of each year.

If the student qualifies for but does not want to accept the Direct Loan funds or wishes to reduce the amount borrowed, the student must contact the Office of Student Financial Services by sending an email from the student's Wilkes email address to financialaid@wilkes.edu

Please state 鈥淒ecline Direct Loans" in the subject line. In the email, include your Wilkes Identification Number (WIN), along with the aid year and the amount of the loan(s) to reduce or decline. Student Financial Services will then remove or reduce the loan(s) on your account.

You need to send an email each academic year that you would like to decline funds.

Parents are not able to decline or accept a student's loan(s) on the student's behalf.

If you qualify for a federal Direct Loan and wish to accept the loan, you must complete Direct Loan entrance counseling and sign a Master Promissory Note (MPN) online to accept the loan(s). You only need to complete these the first time enrolling at 正澳门六合彩开奖直播.

The entrance counseling process ensures that you, the student, understands your rights and responsibilities for the loan. The MPN will serve as an authorization to borrow and promise to repay loans through the Direct Loan program.

Parents should NOT complete the requirements on behalf of their student, as this federal requirement is designed to benefit each student鈥檚 understanding of his/her rights and repayment responsibilities.

Before beginning the below steps, you (the student) will need to log in to with your student FSA ID and password (the same as you used to complete your FAFSA).

A , sometimes referred to as a Parent PLUS Loan, is a federal direct loan for eligible parents of dependent students.

The parent borrower will undergo a credit check with the U.S. Department of Education. The maximum PLUS loan amount a parent can borrow is the cost of attendance minus any other financial assistance the student receives.

Repayment of principal and/or interest can be deferred until after the student graduates or is no longer enrolled at least half-time.

Once either of these courses of action has been completed, the parent will also be required to complete PLUS Credit Counseling.
