    Althought tuition is steep, there are many scholarships and different programs available. Iam currently involved in two different activities on campus that combined give me $7,500. Financial aid is pretty helpful as well. Don't let the price tag scare you. The small class sizes and individual attention from professors does make the price worth it.

    Widener is what you make of it, if you like to sit around and not try new things you will probably get bored. get out there in the community and join some stuff, have fun.

    It is very expensive. Nothing at Widener is free.
