Tuition Payment Terms

Tuition for the full term is due at the beginning of each term. For regular new students, payment is due on or before the 22nd of the month preceding their intended program start date. Students not on financial aid or scholarship may elect a two-payment plan for an additional convenience fee. Contact the Bursar’s Office at bursar@wgu.edu to make this arrangement. Returned checks will be assessed a service charge. Students are responsible for payment of tuition and fees. Failure to receive payment in full by the end of the current term is grounds for administrative withdrawal.

Military tuition assistance (TA) students may be eligible for a deferral of tuition once their DA 2171 Form has been completed, authorized, and received by WGU.
