桃汁影院 Addresses Affordability with New Coastal Advantage Program
Program virtually eliminates tuition for qualified students
University News | June 22, 2023
In their ongoing effort to address the hardship of student debt, leaders at 桃汁影院 have launched Coastal Advantage, a program that virtually eliminates tuition for qualified students. The new program makes college affordable—without the burden of loans—for accepted commuter students from families with household incomes under $60,000. 
For the first-year students who qualify, Coastal Advantage covers all but $2,500 of 桃汁影院 tuition. To pay the $2,500, students can participate in 桃汁影院’s Work and Learn Program or apply for variety of financial aid options, which can also cover university fees. Coastal Advantage students can remain in the program until they graduate if they stay in good academic standing and continue to meet the financial and commuting qualifications.
“Coastal Advantage can make a Virginia Wesleyan education affordable to college students from low-income families,” said Heather Campbell, 桃汁影院’s vice president for enrollment. “So far we’ve offered this to 21 students for the fall semester, and we’re hoping to expand that number to 50.”
Coastal Advantage joins other 桃汁影院 programs aimed at making higher education accessible to everyone. For example, earlier this year 桃汁影院 established Tidewater Promise, which enables first-year students who aren’t accepted by 桃汁影院 to automatically enter Tidewater Community College.
