Cost and Aid
We know cost is one of the major factors that go into your college decision. We also understand how easy it is to rule out a school based on the “sticker price.” We work hard to make an MBU education one of the most affordable in the country. 95% percent of MBU students receive scholarship awards or financial aid. And MBU helps you get your degree quickly by maximizing transfer credits and translating relevant work and life experiences into course credits.
Let’s look at the cost of an MBU education, and some of the ways we work with you to make MBU affordable for you and your family.
