Our Unique Tuition Model
“Because thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will place thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.” —Mt 25:21
We don’t do tuition like other colleges. Focusing on reducing costs and offering a trajectory that includes students earning income as part of their education, we not only promise a loan free graduation, but make possible a net positive departure from our school.

How will I Pay?
We follow a pay-as-you-earn model: your payments begin lower to match your earnings. The Total cost for attendance is $25,000 per year, including tuition and room and board. As your wage and hours increase, you pay a greater part of the total education cost, which is distributed proportionately across your three years. An example payment scenario is below.
