WHY CHOOSE MVNU?

TUITION GUARANTEE

MVNU also offers a unique tuition guarantee; enrolled students’ course-by-course tuition does not increase for the duration of their studies—even if the university’s charges for tuition have increased. Payment is made on a course-by-course basis, and each student is assigned an advisor to guide them through the process of paying for school.

FINANCIAL AID

Though not required, students are encouraged to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) online. MVNU’s school code is 007085. Filling out the FAFSA is an important step in the financial aid process and is required for any financial aid to be awarded.

CAREER DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE

MVNU helps adult learners assess their strengths and explore the career paths that their education unlocks. Additional resources available include resume and cover letter writing assistance as well as access to a career advisor.

Attending Mount Vernon Nazarene University and earning my bachelor’s degree in social work not only gave me the confidence to pursue a new career path, but with the education I received, I’m now able to advocate for those less fortunate. I’m glad I invested time in my future at MVNU. I no longer ‘just have a job,’ but a career as a social worker.
