Utilizing Other Payment Methods
The information on this page is for reporting scholarships from non-Wentworth sources, employer benefits, tuition remission, military education benefits, and state pre-paid education plans, or 529 college savings plans.
Outside Scholarships
Outside scholarship information should be submitted through the Outside Scholarship Reporting Form at least thirty days prior to each semester’s due dates (August 1 for the fall semester, December 1 for the spring semester and April 1 for the summer semester.) The Outside Scholarship Reporting Form should be completed for each outside scholarship you receive. Once the outside scholarship information is reviewed and approved by the Student Accounts Office, the anticipated credit will show on the E-Bill for the semester indicated and for the anticipated scholarship amount as the funds will be sent directly to the Student Accounts Office. The anticipated scholarship amount will not be due, but any balance not covered by the anticipated scholarship or other pending financial aid funds, is due by each semester's due dates. E-Bills not paid in full, on a payment plan, having pending/anticipated financial aid funds, or certified loan funds by each semester’s due dates, risk being assessed holds and late payment fees. Fall scholarships anticipated credits expire in October for the fall semester, February for the spring semester and June for the summer semester. If scholarship funds are not received by the Student Accounts Office by the time the anticipated credit expires, any balance due on the student account must be paid immediately and risks being assessed holds and late payment fees.
If a scholarship organization sends payment directly to Wentworth, please instruct them to include the student's first and last name and Wentworth ID number on the payment. If the scholarship organization sends the payment directly to the recipient, the payment must be forwarded to Wentworth. Please include the student's first and last name and Wentworth ID number on the payment. Checks can be mailed to:
Wentworth Institute of Technology
Student Accounts Office / Williston Hall
550 Huntington Avenue
Boston MA 02115
Wentworth applies the anticipated scholarship credit to the semester(s) indicated on the scholarship confirmation letter. If a student would like to have the anticipated scholarship credit applied in a different semester, the student needs to contact the scholarship organization to provide an updated scholarship confirmation letter with any changes.
Non-Wentworth Scholarships Policy
Federal regulations require that Wentworth consider all resources available to a student when determining eligibility for financial aid funds. Not reporting scholarships can result in late payment fees, holds, and incorrect awarding of financial aid. The Financial Aid Office will notify the student if their non-Wentworth scholarship(s) causes a revision to their financial aid package.
Employer Benefits
Employer, or sponsor, benefit confirmation letters must be sent to the Student Accounts Office at studentaccounts@wit.edu prior to each semester’s due dates of August 1 for the fall semester, December 1 for the spring semester, and April 1 for the summer semester. The anticipated credit will show on the E-Bill for the employer or sponsor benefit indicated in the confirmation letter. You do not need to pay this amount while you wait for the employer or sponsor to send the payment to Wentworth, but you should pay any balance on your E-Bill not covered by the employer or sponsor or other pending financial aid funds by each semester's due dates. E-Bills not paid in full, on a payment plan, have pending financial aid, or certified loan funds by each semester’s due dates, risk being assessed holds and late payment fees.
College Savings Plans
College savings plan funds can be requested online through your college savings plan portal by selecting the electronic funds transfer option or by contacting your plan administrator at least thirty days prior to each semester’s due dates of August 1 for the fall semester, December 1 for the spring semester, and April 1 for the summer semester to request funds be sent to Wentworth. If requesting a paper check payment, the student’s full name and Wentworth ID must be listed on the payment. The funds should be sent to:
Wentworth Institute of Technology
Student Accounts Office / Williston Hall
550 Huntington Avenue
Boston MA 02115
E-Bills not paid in full, on a payment plan, have pending financial aid, or certified loan funds by each semester’s due dates, risk being assessed holds and late payment fees.
Sibling Discounts
Wentworth offers a tuition discount for siblings enrolled concurrently in full time degree programs. Tuition charges must be assessed to the EBill for the sibling discount to be applied. All siblings must be matriculated and enrolled in a full time Wentworth program each semester of eligibility. The sibling discount is applied as follows:
- 10% tuition discount per student for the first and second siblings, enrolled concurrently.
- 20% tuition discount for the third and additional siblings, enrolled concurrently.
The discount does not apply to and will be removed in the following situations.
- One of the siblings takes a leave of absence, withdraws or graduates.
To apply for the discount, list all siblings on the Sibling Discount Form. All areas must be complete, including the expected graduate date for each student.

Wentworth Employee and Dependent Tuition Remission
Please forward the completed Tuition Remission Form to Human Resources at least two weeks prior to each semester’s due dates of August 1 for the fall semester, December 1 for the spring semester, and April 1 for the summer semester to avoid holds and late payment fees. Human Resources will approve the Tuition Remission Form and forward it to the Student Accounts Office. The Student Accounts Office will process the approved amount of tuition remission to the E-Bill. Any balance not covered by tuition remission, or dependent tuition remission, is expected to be paid in full, on a payment plan, and/or covered by pending financial aid funds, or certified loan funds by each semester's due dates. If a balance is past due, holds and late payment fees may be assessed.
Enrollment in three quarter credits or more per semester may result in being assessed student health insurance on the E-Bill. Please visit the Health Insurance webpage for information about health insurance, the waiver process and deadlines to waive.
