As the end of the semester quickly approaches, it is easy to look forward to Christmas break and next semester, but with the beginning of a semester comes new tuition bills to pay. Fortunately, Indiana Wesleyan University offers scholarship opportunities to its students, and the applications are easy to access, fill out and submit.

These scholarships are available through generous donations to the University. Those who donate are able to select requirements for students to receive their funds.
