An independent ranking from the Affordable Degree Guide named Wilmington University’s bachelor’s and master’s programs the most affordable in Delaware. WilmU’s associate degree programs were ranked second in the state for affordability. 

“We work to keep costs manageable because affordability shapes what students can realistically pursue,” says Dr. Denise Wells, WilmU’s senior vice president and chief academic officer. “For many people, tuition is one part of the picture.
