Yes! UWW students are eligible for financial aid
if they meet the same requirements applied to all UMass Amherst students. Over
50% of UMass Amherst students receive a financial aid award. Many
who believe their higher income would make them ineligible find that they are eligible
for cost-effective loans when they apply for aid.

Individualized degree students pursuing a concentration in health and human services will choose from a collection of blended courses combining online course assignments and activities with fewer live classes held on campus. These blended courses, with partial funding from the Massachusetts Department of Mental Retardation and a Sloan Consortium grant, offer health and human service workers or others interested in this field an opportunity to tailor their first bachelor's degree through UMass Amherst's UWW with a focus on such areas as developmental disabilities, health care administration, youth at risk, substance abuse counseling, health and wellness promotion, community health education, or associated fields.
