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

For the 2024-25 academic year, IPEDS reported full-time graduate tuition of $12,480 and required graduate fees of $360 for both Michigan and out-of-state students. Together, those published charges total $12,840 before books, transportation, living expenses, and any program-specific costs.

• Full-time graduate tuition: $12,480 for 2024-25.
• Required full-time graduate fees: $360 for 2024-25.
• Part-time graduate tuition: $520 per credit hour for 2024-25.
• Reported part-time undergraduate tuition: $161 per credit hour for 2024-25.

A per-credit price should not be added to the full-time annual tuition figure; it describes a different enrollment pattern. The reported tuition and fees are published charges, not an individual student's final cost after aid. Applicants should build a budget around their actual credit load and obtain an itemized estimate that includes course materials, commuting, and living costs.

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

Paid work and academic field experience serve different purposes at Ecumenical Theological Seminary. A ministry placement or supervised learning experience should not be assumed to be a paid job, while ordinary part-time employment does not automatically earn academic credit.

Federal Work-Study, where offered to an eligible student, is need-based aid earned through an approved job rather than a grant paid upfront. Applicants considering employment alongside study should ask the financial aid office whether they qualify for that program and how positions are assigned. They should separately confirm any field-education requirements with their academic program and ask whether a proposed placement is paid.
