What is the cost of studying for a year at Manhattan Christian College?

For 2024-25, reported full-time undergraduate tuition at Manhattan Christian College was $18,226, with $900 in required fees. The reported rates were the same for Kansas residents and out-of-state students. Part-time undergraduate tuition was reported at $760 per credit.

  • Tuition and required fees: $19,126 for a full-time academic year in 2024-25.
  • Room and board: a reported median annual charge of $10,741.
  • Books and supplies: a reported median annual expense of $1,239.

Adding those reported categories gives approximately $31,106 before transportation, personal expenses, and any program-specific charges. It is not a personalized cost-of-attendance estimate or a current-year price quote. Housing choices and meal plans can change the amount substantially.

Financial aid can reduce the amount a student pays, but loans must generally be repaid. In the reported aid data, 94% of students received financial aid and 57% had student loans. Reported average net prices varied by family income: they were $19,496 for families earning up to $48,000 and $24,125 for families earning $48,001-$75,000. Net price is an average after applicable grant aid, not an individual award. Applicants should use their own aid offer to compare MCC with other colleges and ask the financial aid office about federal and state grants, institutional scholarships, loan eligibility, and applicable military education benefits.

What are the work-study opportunities at Manhattan Christian College?

Manhattan Christian College reports that individual career counseling and planning are available to undergraduates. Career advising can help students connect a major with possible work or further study, but it is distinct from a job offer or a required internship; MCC does not report an internship requirement for every student.

Students seeking paid work should ask the financial aid office whether they qualify for Federal Work-Study and how available positions are advertised. Work-Study is a need-based federal aid program earned through an eligible job, not an automatic discount on a tuition bill. Other part-time jobs may have different eligibility and hiring rules. Applicants should verify the hours and duties of a specific position rather than assume that receiving financial aid guarantees employment.
