Grace Baptist Bible College has committed to keeping its tuition affordable and highly competitive; therefore federal or institutional financial aid is not deemed appropriate at this time. Payment Options
Students can either pay their tuition in full at the start of each semester, which begins on the day of registration, or make four equal payments throughout the semester. If the latter is chosen, the following payment plan is in effect. For the fall semester, the first payment would be due at registration in August and the three other payments would be due on the first of October, November, December. For the spring semester, the first payment would be due at registration in January and the three subsequent payments would be due on the first of each month in February, March, and April. Students who fail to pay tuition in accord with the terms of their agreement may not be allowed to attend classes, their tuition agreement may be terminated, their fixed tuition agreement (if any) may be terminated, and their deposit (if any) forfeited, unless they have received prior written approval by GBBC’s Business Office for adjustments to their payment schedule. Students whose tuition agreements are terminated because of failure to meet the terms of their agreements must sign a new tuition agreement. Refund Policy
All refunds for charges will be issued to the student on a weekly prorated basis through the end of the fourth week of the semester. No refunds will be given after the fourth week. The refund rate will follow the charted rate of return and will be calculated based on day of completed paperwork.
