Eligible individuals may apply for a Scholarship for the first 1 year only of either full- or part-time study in the 2+2 Bachelor in Disability Management (BDM) program.
The WDA Grant Scholarship will provide
- $6,500 for the first 1 year only of full-time study in the 2+2 BDM program, to cover most of the course tuition for the first 1 year of specialized courses required to complete the BDM degree. Applicants will be responsible for covering the balance of the tuition: approximately $1,120 for the 2026-27 academic year for a student entering with 60 credits and with suitable research coursework; WHDM 306, if required, will incur an additional $762 tuition. Textbooks, which are required by several courses, are not covered by the Scholarship. As the scholarship grant expires in 2027, applicants will be responsible for covering the full tuition and all other expenses for completion of the program in as little as 1 additional year of full-time study (maximum permitted total timeline for completion is 7 years). Expect tuition fees to increase by up to 2% each academic year, beginning Fall 2027.
