"I fell in love with Southern Wesleyan University the first time I came to campus.

I was a sophomore in high school and was a member of a Wesleyan youth group. I had never heard of SWU until the youth group came to visit the campus for a CRAVE weekend, but the moment we drove into the parking lot, I felt like this was the college for me. I tried to fight it by looking into other schools, but God kept showing me this was the school He wanted me to attend."


Financial Aid Home

College is a big decision—you’re looking for the right environment, the right majors, the right location.  And then there’s the cost to consider.  At SWU, we recognize that’s a concern.  That’s why we offer financial aid to help cover the cost.  Plus, when you apply for financial aid at SWU, we’ll develop a financial aid package that meets your particular needs.  

These pages will tell you all about the scholarships and loans that are available and how to apply for financial aid.  If you have questions, don’t hesitate to contact our financial aid staff.
