*All Experiential Learning Portfolio credits are assessed at a rate of $30 per semester hour (unit) earned. This includes credits earned through the professional schools/courses section as well as through the experiential learning essays section. This fee is separate from tuition. A student's assessment fee could vary from $30 to $900, depending on the number of essays submitted and credits earned. Essays are charged upon credit being awarded, not each time an essay is submitted for review. Payment is due upon receipt and billing. Any essays submitted during the third term or beyond must be accompanied by payment in full.

International students must apply through the International Center: Please refer to the International Center website, or call (626) 812-3055 for specific details regarding international admissions requirements, financial information, and other general policies.

All stated financial information is subject to change. Please consult with the Center for Adult and Professional Studies, (626) 815-5301, for the most current and controlling information.

To Apply for Financial Assistance

A Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form must be completed before the first night of class. Azusa Pacific University recommends filing the FAFSA over the Internet at www.fafsa.ed.gov. Filing an online FAFSA eliminates errors and expedites the awarding process. APU’s Title IV code is 001117 for the FAFSA form.

From an analysis of these confidential forms, the amount of student income and assets that can be applied toward university costs is determined. The application will be considered for financial aid as soon as the student has been granted admission to the university.

Online Application for Financial Assistance

  1. Apply for a PIN code at www.pin.ed.gov. (The PIN acts as an electronic signature on the FAFSA as well as an identifier for other student-specific websites.)
  2. Complete the FAFSA at www.fafsa.ed.gov.

Early application is recommended, since receipt of loans can take several months.
