Kairos University

What is the cost of studying for a year at Kairos University?

For 2024-25, Kairos University reported $3,600 in annual full-time tuition for both undergraduate and graduate students, with no required fees in those reported categories. The reported amount was the same for in-state and out-of-state students. These are figures for that reporting year, not a current individualized bill.

• Reported 2024-25 full-time undergraduate tuition: $3,600 for in-state or out-of-state students.
• Reported 2024-25 full-time graduate tuition: $3,600 for in-state or out-of-state students.
• Reported 2024-25 part-time charge: $599 per credit hour for undergraduate or graduate study.

Applicants should have Kairos explain which current billing method applies to their program and pace rather than combining the annual and per-credit figures into one estimate. A full cost-of-attendance budget also accounts for books and technology, transportation, living expenses, and any required travel or supervised experience. Published tuition is therefore not the same as total cost or the amount a student ultimately pays after any applicable assistance.

Financial planning should begin with a program-specific estimate covering the expected time to completion. Students considering military education benefits or other outside funding should verify that their particular credential and enrollment pattern qualify before counting that assistance toward the budget.

What are the work-study opportunities at Kairos University?

Kairos students who plan to work while studying should distinguish an ordinary paid job from Federal Work-Study, which is a need-based financial-aid program with separate institutional and student eligibility rules. Having a job does not, by itself, make its wages Work-Study aid.

The university's context-based model may allow students to draw on their existing work or ministry as a setting for learning, subject to program approval. That is an academic arrangement, not a promise of paid placement. Applicants who need employment income should ask the financial-aid office whether their program participates in Federal Work-Study and ask their academic adviser how current employment can - and cannot - fulfill degree requirements.
