FINANCIAL AID AND ASSISTANCE
International Bible Center offers two financial assistance plans to full-time students:
1) a 12-month payment plan;
2) TRIP. 100% tuition reduction to all full-time freshmen dormitory students who meet the criteria for the program. TRIP does not cover reductions in other areas, such as room and board, textbooks, fees or extraneous charges. Students who are awarded the monthly tuition reduction must meet all other financial obligations on time, maintain a “B” average, remain faithful to the local church body, adhere to all regulations outlined in the student handbook and contribute five hours a week to campus labor.

To apply for the 12-month payment plan and/or TRIP, students must complete the admissions process and be officially accepted as a full-time student at IBC.
