DESCRIPTION OF FEES
As a faith-based school, with a purpose to graduate students free of debt, our tuition and dormitory fees are kept to a minimum.
- Activity Fee – The Activity Fee each semester covers a Library Learning & Technology fee, an internet
& television usage fee, Student Government Activities, a student ID card, and a graduation banquet ticket. - Class Dues – This is to fund class events, activities, and other projects for the class.
- Part-Time Fees and Audit Fees – The cost per credit hour is $100.00. Students taking a part-time course load will be
billed for tuition based on the number of credit hours they are taking multiplied by the cost per credit hour. PT students may be billed other fees in addition to tuition. - Registration Fee – The registration fee is $125 per semester. The Registration Fee is due upon acceptance for new students and during Registration Week for returning students. A late registration fee of $75 will be applied to the accounts of those students that do not pay during Registration Week.
