Understand Your Financial Aid Offer

As part of our Culture of Financial Wellness, we want to ensure that all families fully understand the financial investment of a Western New England University education. Our Enrollment Services Office can provide an overview of applying for financial aid, how to receive alternative financing, and instructions on how to sign up for a payment plan. Our Financial Aid Counselors are available to assist you with questions about financing your education at WNE. Call Enrollment Services at 413-796-2080, or make a phone appointment to have a financial aid counselor call you.

Competing Award Policy

At Western New England University, we are committed to being among the most affordable four-year private residential educational option. Therefore, if after receiving your comprehensive financial aid package, you find that another comparable school you have been admitted to is more affordable, we will be able to assist you through our Competing Award Policy. Comparable schools are typically other 4-year private institutions or state schools with out-of-state pricing.
