Asbury Theological Seminary

What is the cost of studying for a year at Asbury Theological Seminary?

The 2024-25 reported full-time graduate tuition at Asbury Theological Seminary was the same for in-state and out-of-state students. Those published charges are a starting point, not a complete estimate of what an individual student will spend.

• 2024-25 full-time graduate tuition: $17,520.
• 2024-25 required graduate fees: $840.
• 2024-25 reported part-time graduate charge: $730 per credit hour.

Tuition and required fees together came to $18,360 for a full-time graduate student in that reporting year. That sum does not include housing, food, books, transportation, or personal expenses. It should not be combined with prices from a different academic year to create a purported current annual total. Course load also matters: a student taking fewer credits should compare the program's current per-credit charges and applicable fees with the full-time figure.

The amount a student ultimately pays depends on current published rates, living arrangements, and any aid received. Graduate students should pay particular attention to the difference between a billed charge and a cost-of-attendance budget, which can include estimated living expenses even when the student does not live on campus.

What are the work-study opportunities at Asbury Theological Seminary?

Paid work can help Asbury Theological Seminary students meet expenses, but a campus job is different from a scholarship or a guaranteed part of an aid offer. Availability depends on open positions, hiring requirements, and a student's schedule.

Federal Work-Study, when included in an eligible student's aid arrangement, is generally earned through an approved job rather than paid as an automatic grant. Other part-time positions may not require Work-Study eligibility. Students interested in either route should ask the financial aid and hiring offices where vacancies are posted, whether a position requires a Work-Study award, and how many hours can reasonably fit alongside classes and field education. Ministry placements and internships should be evaluated separately: academic credit does not by itself mean paid employment.
