Transportation and Miscellaneous Expenses

Transportation expenses also depend on the student.

Typically, Summer Advantage students do not travel home on the weekends because of the short duration of the program.

The local bus is free to WSU students who show their WSU ID and allows for easy travel into town and around WSU.

Many students choose to enjoy the summer weather and walk to the numerous local businesses and restaurants near campus. Thus, transportation costs should be minimal.

Miscellaneous expenses for toiletries, school supplies, movie rentals, late night pizza delivery, etc., will vary depending on individual lifestyles.

Financial Aid

Financial Aid may be available for eligible students taking 6 or more credits. Please note: you will be responsible for paying all the tuition and program fees regardless of financial aid you receive. Failure to pay will result in a hold on your account and the inability to register for classes.
