Frequently Asked Questions
How do I apply?
Applying to VWU is straightforward. You’ll need to create an account and submit your application, along with transcripts from all colleges and universities attended. No SAT, ACT, or GMAT required! Your personal enrollment counselor will walk you through every step of the process. We can even help you gather any transcripts!
Can I transfer credits?
Absolutely! VWU’s generous credit transfer policy allows you to transfer up to 96 credits to one of our online undergraduate programs and as many as 12 credits to an online graduate degree program.
Is financial aid available?
Yes! VWU has a number of financial aid options available. In fact, more than 98 percent of our students receive financial aid assistance.
How long will it take for me to complete my program?
Depending on the number of transfer credits from previous institutions, VWU students can complete an online undergraduate program in as little as one year. An online Master of Business Administration can be completed in as few as 12 months.
What is the schedule like?
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.
