The revenue from students does not cover the total cost of operation. Individuals and churches who desire to share in the preparation of young people for effective Christian service in all walks of life partially support the University. Some funds are received from interested businesses, industries, and foundations. Student costs as stated are subject to change upon reasonable notification by the University.
