Arkansas Baptist College

What is the cost of studying for a year at Arkansas Baptist College?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Arkansas Baptist College was the same for in-state and out-of-state students. Tuition is only one part of the amount a student needs to budget for a year.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition: $8,760 for the academic year.
• Reported required fees for full-time undergraduates: $0.
• Part-time undergraduate tuition: $365 per credit hour.

Students must also account for books, transportation, personal expenses, and housing and meals where applicable. Those costs vary substantially between a commuter and a residential student; the tuition figure should not be mistaken for a complete cost-of-attendance estimate.

Financial aid changes what students may ultimately pay. In the 2024-25 figures, the average net price for families with annual income of $0-$48,000 was $11,741; for families earning $48,001-$75,000, it was $19,496. Net price is a historical average after grant aid, not an individual offer. The college reported that all students in the measured aid group received some form of financial aid, while 81% received student loans. Eligible students should complete the FAFSA and compare the resulting aid offer with a current, itemized estimate of their own expenses.

What are the work-study opportunities at Arkansas Baptist College?

Arkansas Baptist College reports career-development services for undergraduates, including individual and group counseling, résumé preparation, interview workshops, a job bank, job fairs, and on-campus employer recruitment. These resources can help with a job search, but they do not amount to a job offer or an internship requirement.

Federal Work-Study, when included in a student's aid offer, is earned through eligible employment rather than paid automatically like a grant. A student interested in campus work should ask the financial-aid office whether they qualify, whether positions are available, and how to apply. Ordinary part-time jobs may have different hiring and aid rules; either type of work must be weighed against class and study time.
