Tuition and Financial Aid
At GLBC, quality education doesn’t have to come with a high price tag. Our tuition is far more affordable than comparable institutions. For example, our Foundations in Ministry Certificate costs just $1,600—making it easy to invest in your growth without breaking the bank.
INDIVIDUAL TUITION
Tuition is $100 per credit hour, which applies to both credit and audit students (see below). Credit student tuition is subsidized 50%, made possible by generous supporters of the College- because of this, tuition is the same for audit and credit.
GROUP AUDIT TUITION
Church group audit is available. For congregations with 100 or fewer members, tuition is capped at 3 students. For congregations with more than 100 members, tuition is capped at 5 students. You should check if your church is willing to cover the cost.
FINANCIAL AID
Tuition support may be available for any
GLBC student who requires financial assistance.
Financial assistance—particularly through the GLBC Bursary—is available year-round to students from all backgrounds. Priority consideration is given to students from churches of Christ congregations and full-time students preparing for ministry. At the College’s discretion, some awards may be designated to support specific students or groups.
Our scholarships honor faithful men and women whose lives and ministries continue to inspire future generations. These awards provide meaningful financial support, helping students pursue their studies with confidence and purpose. Scholarships listed below are presented in no particular order. All current GLBC students are encouraged to apply.
- Norris and Myrtle Ellis
- Charles G. McPhee
- Gerald Whitfield
- Becky Hibbard Morgan
- Knutson, Mukitus, Timmerman
