¹ú²ú¾çÂ鶹¾ç

The ¹ú²ú¾çÂ鶹¾ç community is a decidedly Christian community, as exhibited by our shared beliefs, corporate practices, and Christ-like character.

Tuition Remission

A full-time employee is eligible to receive tuition remission for two courses or six units, whichever is greater — up to a maximum of 18 units per academic year. For undergraduate courses, employees receive 100 percent remission, and for graduate courses they receive 50 percent remission. After one year, the legal children and spouse of an employee are eligible to participate in the undergraduate tuition remission program. Tuition remission for dependents’ undergraduate courses is phased in up to 95 percent over four years.

Tuition Exchange Program

¹ú²ú¾çÂ鶹¾ç participates in the Tuition Waiver Exchange Program sponsored through the Council of Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU). This program enables the dependents of regular full-time faculty, staff, and administrators of participating council institutions to attend other participating council institutions tuition-free for up to four years.

Early Childhood Learning Center

Regular employees qualify for a 25 percent discount for each child enrolled in the Early Childhood Learning Center.
