VWU offers affordable, career-focused academic programs to help you achieve your goals. Our online programs are convenient and flexible, allowing you to work toward your new career at a pace that fits your life.
Classes start six times a year, and terms are less than eight weeks long, so you’ll be able to complete a degree on your schedule. Most students can expect to work approximately 10-12 hours a week on coursework, but of course, that depends on a number of factors. What is always true, however, is that your professors stand ready to help you in any way you need.
Virginia Wesleyan believes that no student should be denied the opportunity to attend because of limited financial resources. The Financial Aid staff is available to counsel with students and their families regarding financial assistance.
