College made affordable

It's true — college may be one of the biggest expenses you encounter over the next few years. But it can be one of the best investments you'll ever make — and we'll help you in every way that we can. Take advantage of a variety of institutional scholarships and grants, as well as grants and loans through federal and state assistance. Each student is given personal consideration to fit the financial aid package to the student’s need through both institutional and government aid programs.

Scholarships & Grants

We are committed to making Southern Wesleyan accessible and affordable for all students and their families. We do that through a variety of financial aid opportunities—including merit-based aid (like scholarships), need-based aid (like grants and student work-study employment) and tuition discounts. One hundred percent of first-year students at SWU receive aid of various kinds (the average financial aid package for first-year students is $25,369), demonstrating our commitment to helping families identify and obtain financial aid resources and opportunities that make a valuable Christian education attainable.

Scholarships & Grants

Federal & State Aid

Along with institutional aid options, there are scholarships, grants, and loan options available through federal and state government aid. Federal aid provides need-based grants, low-interest loan options, as well as a federally-funded work-study program. State aid provides South Carolina students with scholarships, grants, and loan options as well.
