For 2024-25, reported full-time graduate tuition was $8,970, with $300 in required fees, for a combined published amount of $9,270 before living and other expenses. The reported part-time graduate tuition charge was $598 per credit hour. The reported in-state and out-of-state graduate charges were the same.
These figures are not a complete annual cost of attendance. Housing, food, books, transportation, and personal expenses depend on a student's circumstances; program-specific charges may also apply. Nor is published tuition the same as a student's eventual out-of-pocket cost after aid. For an enrollment decision, request a current-year estimate that matches the intended degree and number of credits, then compare it with an individual aid offer without counting loans as discounts.
Eligible students may be able to use scholarships, federal graduate loans, or qualifying military education benefits. The terms of each award matter: a scholarship reduces the amount owed, while a loan generally must be repaid with interest.
Graduate students considering paid work should separate three possibilities: ordinary part-time employment, a supervised ministry placement, and a Federal Work-Study job. A placement may be academically required without being paid, while Federal Work-Study depends on program participation, financial eligibility, an award, and an available position.
Students should ask the financial aid office whether their program offers Federal Work-Study and how jobs are posted and paid. They should separately ask the academic program whether field education is required, how placements are arranged, and whether a particular placement offers compensation. Work hours can affect how quickly a part-time student completes a degree, so the course schedule is as important as the availability of a job.
