At Wheaton, we welcome students from every economic background across the United States and around the world. As part of our commitment to affordability, we award the majority of our students with gift aid that does not need to be repaid. Learn how a Wheaton education is within your reach.

Scholarships and Grants
The majority of students admitted to Wheaton qualify for our merit aid scholarships. Students may also be eligible for need-based grants as well as federal and state aid, further lowering the cost of attendance.
What You Pay
The published cost at Wheaton for tuition, fees, meal plan and housing is $58,400 starting in Fall 2027. Wheaton’s commitment to affordability means that most students will see a lower actual cost. With merit scholarships up to $20,000 per year and generous need-based aid, many students can expect to see a bill that is half the published cost or even less, depending on their merit and need-based awards.
