Jackson Theological Seminary

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

For the 2024-25 academic year, reported full-time undergraduate tuition and required fees at Jackson Theological Seminary total $6,150. In-state and out-of-state students are listed at the same rates. This is a published academic charge, not a complete cost of attendance or an estimate of what a student will pay after aid.

• Full-time undergraduate tuition: $6,000, plus $150 in required fees.
• Part-time undergraduate tuition: $250 per credit hour.
• Full-time graduate tuition: $4,950, plus $150 in required fees.
• Part-time graduate tuition: $275 per credit hour.

Students also need to budget for books, transportation, personal expenses, and housing and food. Because the institution does not offer college-operated undergraduate housing, those living costs will depend on each student's arrangements. Part-time students should confirm how required fees apply to their enrollment before multiplying a per-credit rate by their course load.

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

Applicants should verify whether Jackson Theological Seminary currently offers Federal Work-Study or other paid student positions before including job income in an enrollment budget. Federal Work-Study is need-based financial aid earned through an eligible job; it is different from a grant paid upfront or an ordinary part-time job.

A useful question for the financial aid office is whether eligible students can be considered for work-study, how positions are assigned, and when wages are paid. An internship or ministry placement should likewise be treated as paid work only if its terms explicitly provide compensation.
