Financial Aid and Scholarships

Financial aid (grants, loans, scholarships, etc.) is not offered through Summit University.

Application Fee

The one-time $100 application fee is for admission to The School of Theology. Once a student is accepted, the application and the application fee will be valid for one year. If students are unable to attend the semester for which they are accepted, the application fee will be honored for up to one year from the date of acceptance.

The application fee also covers the following situations: (1) Students in a certificate program who would later like to take a second certificate program; (2) Students in a certificate program who would like to switch to a different certificate program; (3) Students who are taking a single course for credit and would later want to take additional individual for-credit courses; (4) Students who are taking a single course for credit and would later want to enter a certificate program.

Late Registration Fee

A fee of $15 per credit is charged for late registrations. There are no exceptions to this policy. Students are notified of registration dates in advance and are encouraged to register early to avoid late fees.

Deferral Fee

A deferral fee of $50 per course will be assessed to students who defer courses. The option to defer is only available during Weeks 2–4 of a course. See Deferring Courses for more information.

We reserve the right to change the curriculum and courses without prior notification. The above information is effective December 1, 2020.
