Cost Overview
With just 14 students enrolled, Tri-State Bible College charges $9,100 annually regardless of residency status. Over half of students (52.38%) receive financial aid, bringing the actual cost down for most families. The four-year total reaches $36,400 for tuition alone.
Federal loans affect only 4.76% of students, suggesting most families either pay out of pocket or receive substantial aid packages. Graduates earn a median of $31,675 ten years after completion. The 1:1 student-faculty ratio means personalized attention but also higher per-student costs. Students preparing for ministry often view this as vocational training rather than traditional higher education.
Families committed to biblical studies and ministerial preparation get the best value here. The intimate setting and specialized focus serve those with clear religious vocations, though the limited career earning potential means students should consider their financial expectations carefully.
