Paying for college: affordable excellence

Occasionally, the cost of college discourages adult students from completing their education at a college of Goshen's quality. However, those who look into their financial options will find that we have an eager staff willing to help you obtain the maximum financial aid assistance package so you reach your goal of completing your degree. Call our Financial Aid office and we'll do everything we can from assisting you in completing the FAFSA to rounding out your Financial Aid Package. See this example of an average student’s tuition schedule and cost.

Adult students pay less at Goshen College

Adult students pay significantly less per credit hour than our traditional first-year student – because Goshen College understands the different needs of adult students – and how to structure an affordable, accelerated, yet high quality program.

Payment options

Pay in Full:	Payment in full for each term by check, cash, or credit card at each registration. Charges unpaid within 30 days will be subject to a 1% (12% annual) interest charge.
Deferment of Tuition:	This option allows a student with employer tuition reimbursement benefits to defer tuition payment until after each course is taken in the term. A new deferment form must be completed prior to each term. This must be approved before registration.
Equal Payments:	Equal monthly installments, plus accumulated monthly interest. In addition, a nonrefundable set up fee of $75 will be charged at the beginning of Term One. Interest will be charged on any unpaid balance at a rate of 1% per month (12% annual). The first installment is due at first registration and then on the first of each month there after.
Financial Aid:	The program spans multiple academic years. All necessary paperwork for the first academic year must be completed by first term registration. Students on Financial Aid must apply at least twice during the program. Check the group schedule for specific filing deadlines.
Special Arrangement:	If none of the preceding plans fit your situation, you may submit a proposal that will be subject to approval of the controller. This must be approved before registration.
