Students may have unique needs or backgrounds that qualify them for additional funding options designed to help make education more accessible.
The Lifetime Learning federal tax credit may reduce the cost of tuition and fees for college-level courses taken to improve or acquire job skills.
People 60 years of age and over may enroll for credit in most CAPS courses at one-half the regular tuition. Exceptions include applied music, independent courses (i.e. independent study, directed research, master’s thesis), special programs and courses in which enrollment is limited. This discount cannot be combined with the WashU Tuition Assistance benefit, CAPS scholarships or military benefits. A birth certificate, driver’s license or other official verification of age is required at the time of registration.
Veterans and active military members are eligible for CAPS tuition remission including the Yellow Ribbon Program, Post 9/11 GI Bill Benefit and the Montgomery GI Bill.
Start your journey with a CAPS student recruiter
Prospective students should schedule an appointment with a recruiter to discuss their interests before applying for admission to a degree or certificate program. Recruiters can also help you if you are undecided about your academic goals or want to become more familiar with college procedures before applying for admission.
