Cost Overview

Most families pay far less than the $25,650 sticker price at this Lutheran teacher training college. Net costs range from $12,474 for families earning under $30,000 to $24,323 for those making over $110,000. The average net price sits at $20,483 annually, meaning four years costs around $82,000. Only 23% of students receive financial aid, reflecting the school's mission-driven student body.

Graduates leave with a median debt of $20,177, translating to monthly payments of $214. That debt load stays manageable against median earnings of $47,491 ten years out. The 90% loan repayment rate shows graduates can handle their obligations. Low-income families get the best deal here, paying roughly half the full cost. The school's focus on training teachers and pastors means students often prioritize calling over earnings potential.
