Financial Information
Main Campus
Tuition
Tuition for the summer quarter is $316 per quarter hour. All students should plan
to pay their tuition at the time of registration. Fees are charged as published in the
1996-97 Walla Walla College Student Finance Bulletin, which is available from
Student Financial Services. Workshops and extended field trips may require
payment of special fees.
Tuition - NPUC Conference Teachers
Teachers from within the North Pacific Union Conference of Seventh-day
Adventists who are sponsored by their respective employing organizations may
present a letter of sponsorship in lieu of tuition payment. However, all teachers
are asked to pay for books and supplies, graduation fees, and room rental
charges. Conference sponsorship does not cover classes requiring individualized
instruction (aviation, music lessons, etc.).
Tuition Refunds
A student withdrawing from classes during the summer quarter will receive a
refund in accordance with the policy in the College Bulletin. A 100% refund is given
if no more than 10% of the class is over, a 75% refund is given if no more than 20%
of the class is over, and a 50% refund is given if no more than 40% of the class is
over.
When a student withdraws during a quarter, no refund will be made until 30
days after the close of the month in which the student withdrew. Students who
leave school without completing withdrawal procedures will be charged until proper
arrangements are made.

Insurance
All registered, tuition-paying graduate and undergraduate students attending the
College Place campus, Portland campus, or Rosario campus, and students in the
summer work program, are covered by the Student Accident Insurance policy.
If a student has elected to carry the optional medical/hospitalization insurance
during the regular 1996-97 school year, that coverage is in effect through
September 18, 1997. New students or students who did not purchase that
insurance may purchase coverage for the summer at a cost of $187 by notifying the
Campus Health Service office at registration time.
Employment (On-Campus Student Work Program)
Although Walla Walla College strives to meet each student's needs, work
opportunities are limited during the summer months. Students are strongly urged
to make arrangements for work before arriving on campus because employment
is not guaranteed. Permission to begin working is given only to students who are
registered for summer quarter or who have been accepted for autumn quarter.
Employment opportunities are available in custodial, plant maintenance, Dairy
Express, Color Press, Library, campus offices, and academic departments.
Students who work full time at the College during the summer and who enroll as full-time students fall quarter may qualify for the Summer Bonus progam.
Regulations require that all employees hired present original documents that
establish both their identity and eligibility to work. All students wishing to work on the
Walla Walla College campus will be required to present documents before they will
be authorized to begin work. For more information, contact the Student
Employment Center, 509/527-2357, 1-800-656-2357.
Financial Aid
Students who are needing assistance with their summer quarter may apply for
financial aid. Some WWC grant dollars may be available; some students may also
be eligible for a Federal Pell Grant. Loans may be available, such as Federal
Stafford loans and institutional loans through Walla Walla College.
Students who wish to be considered for federal grants and loans will want to
mail their 1996-97 FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) by April 15,
1997. The FAFSA must be received by the federal processor by June 30, 1997,
because they stop accepting applications for the summer on this date. The federal
government will not grant exceptions to this deadline. A student cannot be
considered for the Federal Pell Grant, SEOG grant, Perkins loan, Nursing loan, or
Stafford Loan if this deadline is missed.
A completed Financial Aid file contains:
- Correct SAR (Student Aid Report). The SAR is generated by the federal
processor after a FAFSA is submitted. Students who list WWC (code
003799) on their FAFSA will have their SAR electronically sent to WWC by
the federal processor. Students who did not list WWC on their FAFSA will
need to mail their SAR to Student Financial Services.
- Walla Walla College Financial Aid Application (FAA). The student should
mail this directly to Student Financial Services at WWC.
- Proof of high school completion (final transcript or letter of verification).
- Additional documentation, if needed, for verification purposes.
Only financial aid that has been awarded by registration time may be deducted
from the estimated costs. Students eligible for Federal or Washington State
financial aid must be registered for classes by June 30. Students who register
or add classes after that date cannot receive Federal or State financial aid for those
classes.
Students who are on the waiting list or waiting for a letter of acceptance should
complete the financial aid application. Awarding of financial aid does not constitute
acceptance into Walla Walla College. However, if a student moves off the waiting
list at the last moment, it is to the student's advantage to have the financial aid
application completed.
