Miscellaneous Information
Wilkes University will gladly defer payments for students who have tuition benefits through their employers. Forms are available at the Center for Continued Learning. Please note: Requests for deferment must be submitted prior to the beginning of each semester.
For tuition and fees, please refer to the Financial Aid page.
In order to register for class, students must be financially clear with any outstanding balance due the University. For more information, please visit the Bursar/Tuition Billing office page.
Please remember, all charges for the current semester must be paid two weeks prior to the start of classes unless the Bursar’s Office has approved alternate arrangements. Wilkes University accepts VISA, MasterCard, Discover and American Express for tuition and fee payments.
The Pell Grant, Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, PHEAA State Grant, College Work Study and Stafford Student Loan are available to part-time students. Interested students must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). In addition to financial need, eligibility is based on enrollment status. All programs except the Pell Grant require at least half-time enrollment. Inquiries about financial aid should be directed to (570) 408-4512 for information.
Information about veterans’ benefits is available through the Financial Aid Office, (570) 408-4512.
A student wishing to withdraw from a course should first discuss the matter with the instructor. Students are not withdrawn from a course when they simply do not attend. Students must complete a course withdrawal form, available on the Registrar page.
During the first week of the semester, a student may withdraw from a course by informing the instructor, completing a withdrawal form (signed by the student’s advisor) and returning it to the appropriate office. Students should return the form to the Registrar’s Office.
After the first week, withdrawal is allowed through the tenth week of the semester and requires the approval and signature of both the instructor and the student’s advisor.
Thereafter, a student may withdraw only for medical reasons (supported by a written excuse from a physician) or other extremely serious circumstances, as determined by the dean of the school in which the course is being taught. Poor academic progress, in and of itself, will not be considered sufficient reason for permission to withdraw from a course after the allowed withdrawal period.
