Multiple Child Discount

The Multiple Child Discount for the 2009-2010 academic year is for siblings from the same household who are concurrently enrolled as undergraduates at PLNU. To be eligible for this discount, both the student and the student’s sibling(s) must each qualify as a “dependent”** student and be enrolled full-time (12 units or more) through the end of the Refund Period each semester. 

Multiple Child Discount is awarded as follows:

 
No. of Siblings Total Family Discount

$2,000

3

$4,000

4

$6,000


Award amounts can be divided among siblings in any way the family chooses provided the amount fits within each sibling’s budget, financial need, and semester charges.

Seniors enrolled less than full-time in their final semester are eligible to receive a prorated amount of Multiple Child Discount. If the family so desires, this prorated amount can be allocated to the graduating student’s sibling, in which case the sibling would receive the prorated amount in addition to the standard amount for the academic year.

The Hawaii Travel Discount ($1,200) is for students who are residents of Hawaii and is intended to offset travel expenses to PLNU. The award is activated when the Student Financial Services (SFS) Office receives a copy of the student’s valid Hawaii Driver’s License or State ID card.

Tuition Remission

PLNU employees and their dependents may be eligible for Tuition Remission. They should contact the Office of Human Resources at (619) 849-2200 or visit Human Resources for more information.

In addition, a limited number of students whose parents are employed at Council of Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU) schools may be eligible for tuition remission benefits. These students must apply through the PLNU Admissions Office to determine their eligibility for this benefit.

Although tuition remission is a benefit, it is considered a resource and can sometimes limit the student’s eligibility for federal, state, and institutional aid.
