SWIC Mission Statement

The mission of SWTC is "Changing lives one career at a time."

Financial Aid Philosophy

SWTC believes that everyone who desires training should have the opportunity of attending school regardless of their financial situation. We continue to promote financial assistance opportunities to eligible students who might otherwise be depriving themselves of the benefit of technology training. The primary purpose of the financial program at SWTC is to provide financial assistance to students who, without aid, would be unable to attend school. Financial assistance is offered in the form of grants, scholarships, and federally funded programs. Financial assistance is viewed only as supplementary. The student and the family of a student, when applicable, are expected to make a maximum effort to assist with educational expenses.

It is the policy of SWTC to award federal financial aid in accordance with federal regulations and guidelines pertaining to the type of assistance requested.
