Is financial aid available?

The Wilmette Institute offers a limited number of partial scholarships to individuals, available in $30 increments that it awards on the basis of need. If you request a scholarship, your registration will not be complete until the Institute has awarded a scholarship and until you have either paid the balance or made the first payment in your installment plan. To request a scholarship, you will need to provide the following information when you register for a course:

1. An explanation of your financial need.
2. The amount of aid you are requesting in $30 increments ($30, $60, $90, and so on). Note that course tuition is $150 for individuals and $120 for full-time university students, senior citizens, and home and international pioneers.

After you submit your request for a scholarship, you will hear from us within five days.

May I pay in installments?

Yes. If you are unable to pay full tuition at the time of registration, you may pay, by credit card only, in up to three installments. During the payment portion of the registration process, click on “Alternative Payments,” and follow the instructions for paying in installments.
