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

Calvin Theological Seminary's published graduate tuition figures for 2024-25 were the same for in-state and out-of-state students. The reported figures were:

  • Full-time graduate tuition: $17,603 for the academic year.
  • Part-time graduate tuition: $607 per credit.
  • Reported required graduate fees: $0.

These are 2024-25 tuition figures, not a quote for a later enrollment year or a complete annual living budget. Housing, food, books, transportation, and personal expenses can materially increase the amount a student needs. Course load can also change the tuition calculation, so part-time applicants should price their planned credits rather than use the full-time figure automatically.

The amount a student ultimately pays depends on current charges and any aid received. Applicants should request a current program-specific cost estimate and ask which institutional scholarships or other assistance require a separate application. Eligible graduate students may also consider federal student loans; loan eligibility and award amounts are individual decisions, not reductions in the published tuition price.

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

Student employment at Calvin Theological Seminary should be considered separately from admission, scholarships, and required ministry training. A paid campus job provides wages for work performed; a field-education placement may have different academic and compensation arrangements.

Students interested in Federal Work-Study should ask the financial aid office whether it is offered for their program and whether their aid award includes it. Work-Study eligibility, where available, does not by itself assign a job or guarantee earnings. Applicants seeking part-time work should also ask where seminary or shared-campus positions are posted and whether their course and placement schedules leave room for employment.
