Full Tuition Scholarships for distance learning
Full tuition scholarships for distance learning degree programs will be granted depending on the availability of donations and support from individuals and organizations.
The terms affecting full tuition scholarships for BIU distance learning adult degree programs are:
- Full tuition scholarships are limited to a specific major of study and adult degree program. If the student who got the full tuition scholarship wants a different distance learning degree program, he or she may be required top pay the difference in tuition and any additional textbook assignments or extra costs incurred by the new distance learning adult degree program.
- Available scholarships will be informed through BIU Social Networks, mostly Facebook, Twiter and Linkedin. If you are interested in this information you should join these networks to get updated information.
- Once you see a scholarship available you should submit the application for admission and write in the “Additional Requests” part at the bottom of page 1 of the application the following remark: “I request full tuition scholarship for the offer published on (date).” The applicant must always meet the BIU distance learning adult degree program admission requirements.
- BIU will inform you if the full tuition scholarship has been granted. You will be asked to pay a 300$ deposit to confirm your acceptance of the scholarship. If you do not pay this deposit within 7 days since BIU confirmed your eligibility, you will loose the scholarship. This deposit will be refunded to you upon completion of your distance learning adult degree program of studies. Note that textbooks assigned for full tuition scholarship distance learning adult degree programs may not be new because they are donated.
- Once your acceptance of the full tuition scholarship is confirmed with the payment of the deposit, BIU will publish your name at the BIU Social Networks as winner of the full tuition scholarship granted. Once admitted into a full tuition scholarship distance learning adult degree program, if you wish to change your major of study or the adult degree program you may request so in writing. In that case the 300$ deposit will be used to cover the change of the distance learning adult degree program administrative expenses. The total value of the full tuition scholarship granted (according to the value chart) will be discounted from the tuition of the new distance learning adult degree program of study. Any new books assigned or other new additional material required are not included in the new distance learning adult degree program. Refund policy is not applicable in case of full scholarship.
- Full scholarships are subject to completion deadlines. If you do not complete any of the required assignments in the due dates that will be shown at the Assignment Evaluation Form, you will loose the scholarship and the deposit of 300$.
