Affordability and Cost
Average Net Price Average net price for full-time, first-time degree/certificate-seeking undergraduates paying the in-state or in-district tuition rate who were awarded grant or scholarship aid from federal, state or local governments, or the institution. Other sources of grant aid are excluded. Aid awarded anytime during the full aid year is included.
Average net price is generated by subtracting the average amount of federal, state or local government, or institutional grant and scholarship aid from the total cost of attendance. Total cost of attendance is the sum of published tuition and required fees (lower of in-district or in-state), books and supplies and the weighted average room and board and other expenses.

What Students Are Saying
You will get your moneys worth and more! Word of Life teaches you how to live!
Laura from Connecticut
Word of life gives many opportunities to get scholarships, grants, and just earn money to help with tuition. For what you get out of the year, the price is worth it. But be smart, look out for their different opportunities to earn bucks towards your tuition: Summer Training Core (STC), Summer Work Program, RA scholarships, Inn Work Program, Financial Aid...
Charlotte from Rhinelander, WI
Word of Life Bible Institute may seem expensive for a year of Bible study, but the college tries to work with you to make it affordable. After receiving pell grants, financial aid, scholarships, and work study, I am attending for a reasonable rate. When you compare Word of Life to other private schools, you are getting a great deal. In addition, the Word of Life credits transfer to many other Bible colleges who give you scholarships for having been a Word of Life alumni. Word of Life is also accredited making it worth it.
