TOLIBS Tuition Mission
TOLIBS Tuition Policy is that all tuition is to be paid in full prior to the start of the first class of each semester that the student is enrolled into.
With this in mind, at TOLIBS we believe that finances should not be the main factor in your education. Holding fast to that, we are determined to keep our tuition cost low while continuing to be an uncompromising force within the ministerial educational field. To help facilitate this mission and our commitment to our students we have purposely not increased the Institutes tuition costs in over 4 years.
As noted below we do have a tuition policy in place that benefits the student as well as the Institute, while we all continue to grow. In addition to now being able to accept funds that go towards tuition scholarships that help those less fortunate achieve their academic goals, we have also put in place Self-Directed Payment Plans (SDPP). We hope & believe that this will allow the student to master the curriculum without the added stress or burden that finances can bring.
This policy also affords the Institute the ability to thrive in an ever changing landscape while continuing to fulfill our Institutes mandate to "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
