Cost of Attendance
Since Malone’s fully online programs are discounted at the credit hour level, we aren’t able to issue institutional aid to online students—but you still qualify for federal and state grants and loan eligibility! This makes the FAFSA an indispensable tool in financing your education.
To ensure a smooth transition into your program, we recommend completing the FAFSA (the Free Application for Federal Student Aid) at least six weeks before your semester begins. This is your key to accessing federal and state funding. Using our Title IV (Federal) school code (003072) will ensure that your data is delivered to Malone so we can create a financial aid offer for you.
Types of Financial Aid
Your financial aid offer might consist of a variety of resources to help you finance your college education. There are couple basic categories of financial aid.
Federal and State Grants
As an undergraduate student, you have access to federal and state grant funding! The first step to eligibility for this gift aid is to complete your FAFSA. Our federal school code is 003072.
Loans
At Malone, we offer a variety of loan options—including federal, private, and alternative financing solutions—to help you bridge the gap between tuition costs and available financial aid. Whether you’re a first-time borrower or exploring repayment strategies, our financial aid team is here to guide you through the process, ensuring you find the best option for your needs.

Frequent questions about online undergraduate admissions and aid
How do I access my online courses?
You will use a learning management system called Moodle for your online coursework. To access your courses, please log in to Moodle. Using your Malone login credentials, enter your username and password at the top of the page.
How can I be successful as a Malone online student?
Here are a few tips on how to make the most of your online experience:
- Be self-motivated and self-disciplined. With the freedom and flexibility of the online environment comes responsibility. The online process takes a real commitment and discipline to keep up with the course material.
- Be able to commit the same amount of time to an online course as you would a traditional course. Online courses are not easier than traditional courses.
- Be willing to share your experiences with others. Many of the online activities you will engage in will require you to integrate course material and your life experiences.
- Be willing to engage in meaningful and quality discussion. Discussion is an essential component of the online learning environment. The testing and challenging of ideas is encouraged. You will not always be right; just be prepared to accept a challenge.
- Be prepared to communicate through writing. Virtually all of the communication that you will engage in will require you to express yourself in writing.
- The online learning process is accelerated and requires commitment on the student’s part. Staying up with the class and completing all work on time is vital. Once a student gets behind, it is almost impossible to catch up. Essentially, the student needs to want to be there, and needs to want the experience.
- Commit to staying in communication with an online advisor who can help you navigate your experience as an online student.
Can I transfer credits?
Yes. The number of credits you can transfer differs by program. Please check the page for the program you plan on applying to for specific details.
How do I communicate with my adviser, instructor, and classmates?
Malone Online emphasizes communication between students, their peers, and their instructors. Communication is facilitated by online discussions, email, online chat rooms, and whiteboards. These tools allow students to communicate with their professors, work on group projects, view documents, and collaborate.
What are the expectations of an online student?
The same course demands and academic standards required in a classroom apply to online courses. Just as in a traditional classroom, students are provided with a course syllabus that outlines a schedule of study and deadlines for assignments.
Is financial aid available?
Yes. Financial aid is largely contingent on filling out a FAFSA. For more information, please visit our financial aid page.
How do I apply to Malone?
Applying to Malone is easy. You’ll need to fill out an application, submit official transcripts, and check the program you plan to apply for specific application requirements.
How do I register for a course?
Registration can be completed through MaloneXpress. New students should contact their admissions counselor for assistance, and current students should contact their adviser.
Do I have to log into the online learning system at a specific time?
Malone’s online courses are designed with flexibility in mind. You are not required to be online at a specific time of day. However, all online courses require that work be completed within a particular timeframe. It is recommended that you access your course daily to engage with the learning material, participate in online discussions, and complete assignments and exams.
How long will it take for me to complete my program?
Earning your degree online means you can choose the completion time that’s right for you. The time it takes to graduate depends largely on program requirements, transfer credits, and your level of commitment as a part-time or full-time student.
When will I be able to access my courses?
Courses are available one week prior to the start date. This allows students an opportunity to review the syllabus and plan their term.
