• 2024-25 full-time graduate tuition: $15,120.
• 2024-25 required graduate fees: $720.
• 2024-25 part-time graduate tuition: $560 per credit hour.

Those figures are not a complete annual cost of attendance or necessarily the current bill. Students also need to budget for housing, food, books, transportation, and personal expenses; clinical or field placements may create additional travel costs. A full-time tuition-and-fees figure for 2024-25 is $15,840 before those living expenses. The amount an individual pays will depend on the current rate, course load, applicable aid, and circumstances.

Graduate students should ask the financial aid office which institutional scholarships are available for their program and what application is required. Eligible students may also be able to pursue federal graduate aid by completing the FAFSA. Unlike most undergraduates, graduate students generally should not build a budget around Pell Grants.

What are the work-study opportunities at Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary?

Student employment and Federal Work-Study are different things. Federal Work-Study, when available to an eligible student, is a financial-aid program tied to qualifying employment; an ordinary campus or community job does not become Work-Study simply because a student holds it.

Applicants seeking part-time work should ask the seminary's financial aid and student-employment contacts whether funded positions are offered, how vacancies are posted, and whether a FAFSA or separate application is required. They should also compare a job's hours with their program's class, field-education, or clinical commitments. A ministry placement or internship may meet an academic requirement without being a paid job.
