We Value high quality education and hands on experience that is practical and affordable

Because we are affiliated with SEU, which is a regionally accredited institution, its partnership enables enrolled students to pay for their college experience using federal financial aid. To be eligible for such funding, the student must file a Free Application for Federal Student Aid, also known as a FAFSA (SEU’s school code is 001521), and maintain 12 credit hours each semester. In doing so, the student may be eligible for federal aid in the form of a Pell Grant, Federal Direct (student) loan, or Federal Parent PLUS loan.

As part of their studies, many students enroll in the Student Ministries Practicum course. The cost for this course is $0 and may be offset by either a practicum scholarship or a credit on the student’s account.
