Greetings everyone! I'm looking into Biola University but am having some difficulty nailing down specifics on tuition. Can anyone help me out or point me to up-to-date resources?
Hello there! Tuition costs for colleges can indeed be tricky to figure out. As of the 2024-2025 academic year, the base tuition cost for Biola University is about $49,000 per year. However, that figure doesn't include additional expenses like room and board, books and supplies, and personal expenses, which can all add up to a few thousand more.
Keep in mind, though, that the figure I've mentioned is the list price – the tuition cost listed by the university. Many students do not actually pay this total cost after accounting for financial aid and scholarships that can significantly reduce the financial burden. Financial aid at Biola University includes federal and state grants, work-study, and loans. The university also offers a range of scholarships based on factors like academic merit, leadership, and area of study.
If you're looking to calculate your personal cost, the best resource would be Biola University's net price calculator on their website (https://biolau.studentaidcalculator.com/survey.aspx), which can give you a more accurate approximation of what you might pay after financial aid. Despite the listed tuition price, many students often find their education at Biola more affordable than anticipated. Always research thoroughly and take advantage of the financial aid office's expertise to answer any questions you have, as they want to help you make it possible to attend!
