Are the admissions requirements the same to study online as they are to study on campus?

All of the academic admissions requirements are the same. Therefore, you must satisfy our English Proficiency Requirements, successfully graduate from high school for a Bachelor degree, and if you are pursuing a Master degree, you will need to have successfully completed a U.S. Equivalent 4 year Bachelor degree with a Grade Point Average of a 2.7. It is not necessary for you to submit a copy of your financial support nor your passport, as you will not be applying for a U.S. visa. You will still need to provide us with a copy of a National Identification Card to confirm your identity.

A new law going into effect January 19, 2018, will allow Wisconsin nurses to practice in many other states. Under the Enhanced Nurse Licensure Compact (eNLC), nurses are able to provide care to patients in other eNLC states, including Iowa, without having to obtain additional licenses.

What happens if my FAFSA is selected for verification?

If selected for verification, you will be required to submit a Verification Worksheet (provided by your Financial Aid Department) and some, or all, of the following:

  • A copy of your most recent federal tax filing and your spouse’s or parent’s tax filing, if applicable. You can request a free Tax Transcript from the IRS Tax Transcript Request Line by calling 800-829-1040 or by visiting IRS.gov.
  • Proof of child support paid
  • Identity and Statement of Educational Purpose
  • High school diploma or GED

Other supporting documentation includes, but is not limited to:

  • W2’s
  • Birth certificate
  • Immigration papers
  • Social security card
  • Government issued identification card
  • Statement of educational purpose
  • Divorce decree or separation documentation (must have correct, current name)
  • Ward of the Court
  • Homelessness documentation
  • SNAP Benefits

 

What is verification?

If your FAFSA is selected for verification by either the U.S. Department of Education or Herzing University, you will be asked to submit additional information to verify that the questions on your FAFSA form were answered correctly.

 

According to my FAFSA, I’m considered a dependent student. What does this mean?

Based on your age, marital status, and family status, you may be considered a dependent student and you will need your parent’s help when completing the financial aid process. If you have questions about being declared a dependent student, or if your parents are divorced and you’re not sure which parent(s) needs to supply information, please contact a financial aid advisor.

 

How and when is my financial aid money disbursed?

Once you accept your Financial Aid Package and begin classes, your financial aid money will be applied to your account at Herzing University. You can have any remaining money sent to you by direct deposit or mailed as a check to your address on file, according to the mail dates indicated on your letter, unless you choose to return the unused portion to the lender. We strongly advise that you only accept the money you absolutely need, in order to lessen your loan repayment amounts in the future.

To find disbursement dates, see our disbursement schedule.

Please note: It is the student’s responsibility to communicate any name and/or address changes to Herzing University.
