• Full-time graduate tuition: $28,170 for 2024-25.
• Full-time required graduate fees: $1,500 for 2024-25.
• Part-time graduate tuition: $939 per credit for 2024-25.

The full-time figure and per-credit rate describe different enrollment patterns and should not be added together. An applicant's actual bill will depend on the current year's charges, credit load, and applicable fees. A complete budget must also account for living costs in Los Angeles and any program-specific expenses, including materials or travel where required.

Financial aid can change what a student pays out of pocket, but a loan reduces the immediate payment rather than the underlying cost. Applicants should request a current, program-specific cost estimate and ask the financial aid office which institutional scholarships, federal loans, or other assistance they may be eligible to pursue.

What are the work-study opportunities at Academy for Jewish Religion California?

Students interested in earning income while attending AJRCA should distinguish a regular part-time job from Federal Work-Study. Work-Study, where offered to an eligible student, is a financial-aid arrangement tied to an approved job; it is not a grant paid simply for enrolling.

Applicants can ask the financial aid office whether their program and aid package permit Work-Study, what application steps apply, and how approved positions are filled. They should separately ask program staff how coursework and required fieldwork are scheduled. A paid job may be valuable experience, but it should not be assumed to satisfy an academic placement requirement.
