What additional costs will I need to pay?

  • An application fee of $100 is required.
  • While the WDA Grant Scholarship will cover most of the tuition of the full-time BDM program, or most of the tuition of the part-time BDM program, students are responsible for covering the balance of tuition (approximately $1,120 per academic year for the full-time BDM program; approximately $560 per academic year for the part-time program (as of December 2021)).
  • The costs of elective or additional courses, if required, are not covered by the Scholarship.
  • There will be other incidental costs, including costs of textbooks and other materials, which are not covered by the Scholarship.
  • The cost of a Prior Learning Assessment and Recognition (PLAR) request for any course is not covered by the Scholarship.
  • The cost of a PLAR review for admission is not covered by the Scholarship.
  • Fees for any course not completed within the Scholarship period will be the responsibility of the student.
  • The percentage to which the annual Scholarship will cover actual tuition costs will be contingent on the number of transfer credits with which prospective students will enter the degree program.
