encourages all students and their families to visit the college website often as it outlines institutional policies and procedures regarding financial aid and expected student costs . The website also hosts Williamson ’ s Net Price Calculator , which is a tool designed to estimate the cost of attendance and types of financial aid students might qualify for as a college freshman attending school full-time in the upcoming academic year . The Net Price Calculator is typically updated at the beginning of each academic year following the US Department of Education ’ s release of the Pell grant award value .
Williamson posts student itemized Annual Fees and Books and Supplies letters tailored by academic year and trade program prior to the beginning of each fall term . These letters are available on the college ’ s website under the Financial Aid / Cost of Attendance section and within the billing management section of each student ’ s Blackbaud SMS portal . While students should refer to their itemized letter for specific academic fee and program costs , students should anticipate the following estimated initial and recurring costs for the 2024-2025 Academic Year :
• Annual Fees : $ 140
• Enrollment Deposit ( Freshman Only ): $ 200
• Books and Supplies : Varies by academic year and program .
• Optional Student Parking Fee ( Juniors and Seniors only ): $ 175.00 *
* Various student incentives are offered that may lower this cost . See the Blackbaud billing portal for more information .
Students may view their entire billing account through the Blackbaud portal , including their charges , their current balance , and have the ability to make an electronic payment . All students must provide an enrollment deposit which may be returned to the student as outlined within the college ’ s Student Withdrawal process . All Students must provide their own health insurance . Please note that Williamson is not an approved school by the Veterans Administration , hence the college is not eligible to receive GI Bill or Yellow Ribbon program benefits .
Scholarship Eligibility { 6 / 10 / 24 }
All Williamson College students receive a Williamson Scholarship which , alongside any Federal Pell and Pennsylvania State Grants ( PA residents only ) received , will defray a student ’ s annual tuition , room , and boarding costs . To qualify for a Williamson Scholarship , all students ( including incoming freshmen ) must complete and submit a Free Application for Federal Student Aid ( FAFSA ) for Pell and State Grant ( PA residents only ) consideration . Defined by the US Federal Department of Education as an institutional scholarship , the Williamson Scholarship award amount is calculated only after the value ( if any ) of a student ’ s Pell and State Grant ( PA residents only ); determined by the completion of a FAFSA form . Students who fail to complete and submit a FAFSA will prevent a Williamson Scholarship from being awarded and must pay the full cost of tuition , room , and board . The college ’ s Financial Aid Office is available to assist students and their families with completing their financial aid applications .
Upon acceptance in the spring of 2025 , all incoming freshmen must attend a Financial Aid Workshop and complete and submit their FAFSA by April 30 , 2025 . Incoming freshmen who fail to accomplish these tasks by April 30 , 2025 , will prevent the Williamson Scholarship from being awarded , resulting in the student paying the college the full amount of tuition , room , and board by May 15 , 2025 ; failure to meet these deadlines will lead to enrollment cancellation .
In addition , students must complete and submit the FAFSA prior to their junior and senior years . Currently enrolled students must complete and submit their FAFSA by February 1 prior to the start of their subsequent academic year ( for example , to receive a Williamson Scholarship for the 2025- 2026 Academic Year , a currently enrolled student must complete his FAFSA by February 1 , 2025 ). Failure to accomplish these tasks by February 1 will prevent the Williamson Scholarship from being awarded for the subsequent academic year , resulting in the student paying the full cost of tuition , room , and board by August 1 , 2025 .
