Travel Assistance
When you take part in a campus visit, its not only about seeing campus, meeting the people who make up the community, and checking out the learning environment, but you also get to experience the journey you would make as a student from your home to Chestertown.
Washington College will reimburse the cost of half of your plane, train or bus ticket up to $250. If you choose to attend WC, we will reimburse the second half of your ticket up to $250.
Qualifications
In order to qualify for the travel assistance, students must attend an admissions session/event (information session, interview, campus resource meeting, and/or campus tour). This reimbursement only applies to the student’s ticket, and is only applicable for one trip. The business office uses the direct deposit method for travel reimbursements. A completed W9 and ACH form are required in order for reimbursements to be processed. You will be sent these documents in a follow up email. To request travel reimbursement, complete the travel reimbursement form. This does not include personal vehicles or the cost of fuel.
If the prospective student is traveling alone, WC will offer free transportation to and from major airports and train stations in Washington College’s surrounding area for students residing outside of the Mid-Atlantic region. To qualify for the transport, students must attend an admissions session/event (information session, interview, campus resource meeting, and/or campus tour). To request transportation to and from campus, complete the transportation request form.
