Every effort is made to keep costs to a minimum. Because of the generosity of friends and alumni of the university and the supporting denomination, Graduate School tuition is substantially reduced. Tuition and Fees for 2007-2008
Financial Assistance A limited number of financial grants are available from the GSCM. Students seeking financial assistance are required to complete the Financial Aid Application each semester of enrollment. All members of the Church of the United Brethren in Christ who enroll in the GSCM are eligible to receive a financial grant in the amount of thirty-three percent of graduate tuition. Contact one of these two organizations to apply for an alternative student loan.

Prior to the beginning of classes, an official billing is sent to each student for the subsequent semester. Billed expenses are due by August 10 for the fall semester, December 10 for the spring semester, and March 10 for the summer semester. It is expected that the bill will be paid in full by the beginning of the semester, although students may work with the business office to create a payment plan. The phone number for the business office is (260) 359-4007. Students may make advance payments to the University that will be held in trust on their accounts prior to receiving billings for the coming term. A student unable to pay in full may choose to arrange private financing for educational expenses through one of several private lenders. The financial aid office is able to provide information about such lenders. Arrangements should be completed several weeks prior to enrollment. Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Novus charges may be made at the campus bookstore or used to complete payment on a student’s account up to the limit of the charge card amount. Unpaid Student Accounts A service charge of 1 1/2 % or $30, whichever is greater, is added to any unpaid balance in the student account as of the last working day of each month. Students who officially withdraw or who reduce their course credit load may be entitled to a refund of the tuition according to the following schedule. Prior to the beginning of classes, full tuition is refunded. For withdrawals after the official beginning of classes, the date used to compute any refund is the official date of withdrawal. Any financial assistance to the student is prorated. Students who have been dismissed may not appeal for refund of tuition. For Regular 2 X 3 Classes
Students who are considering a reduction of their status from full-time to part-time or who are planning to withdraw during the semester should discuss those plans with the dean of the graduate school since most financial assistance is based on the number of hours enrolled and may be reduced in accordance with the number of hours maintained. Rooms may be available on campus that can be reserved for graduate students on a per night basis at a nominal charge. For additional information or to reserve a room, call the conference office at (260) 359-4200.
