Financial Aid | Western Technical College

Financial Aid

Attending Western Technical College is one of the most affordable ways to earn a college education. But even with our low cost-per-credit tuition rates, you may still need some financial assistance to reach your goals. We’ll help you get connected with the resources you need to make college even more affordable.

You're encouraged to file your Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) early!
