Program Changes | On-Campus Programs to Online Degree Completion Programs
Any current Hilbert student that is interested in changing their program from on-campus, in person instruction, to online instruction may do so by completing a program change form. Please note: Given the reduced tuition rate for programs offered through Hilbert College Global, students will NOT be eligible for any institutional grants/scholarships or merit-based aid that they were previously eligible for on-campus instruction. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Financial Aid Office for further information.
