Tuition & Aid
Wondering how you will pay for college? FLBC partners with alumni, congregations, and generous individuals who want you to receive a Bible College education without going into debt to pay for it. Students benefit from a condensed class schedule, part-time employment, merit-based scholarships, and FLBC-sponsored financial aid. It's not free, but more than worth the investment.

Scholarships
Final Deadline: January 30, 2026
Need-based Financial Aid
Priority Deadline: January 30, 2025
Final Deadline: July 30, 2025
FLBC provides support for students through internal financial aid instead of asking them to complete the FAFSA. Unlike federal and state financial aid, FLBC does not expect parents to sell businesses or farms to send their child to college. We do, however, expect families to make contributions to education according to their means, especially using college savings to help pay for training at FLBC.
