More Than Tuition. More Than a Degree.
At JC College, students receive more than college courses. Through our LPU Church Partner relationship, eligible students receive access to a discounted tuition pathway while becoming part of a Christ-centered college experience that combines academic education, Christian community, spiritual formation, leadership development, hands-on ministry training, and student life.
Through our partnership with Life Pacific University, students can pursue an accredited college degree while experiencing the personal growth, mentorship, ministry opportunities, and community that come from being part of JC College, Jesus Church, and JC School of Leadership.
Estimated Cost
Approximately $15,200 Per Academic Year
The estimated JC College cost is approximately $5,000–$6,000 per semester for a typical 16-credit-hour course load. Actual costs may vary depending on the student's academic program, number of credit hours, applicable JC College fees, and individual circumstances.
Affordable Christian Higher Education
At JC College, and LPU individual costs may vary according to academic program, credit load, financial aid eligibility, and applicable JC College fees.
We believe financial limitations should not prevent students from pursuing their education and calling.
Eligible students may have access to FAFSA, Pell Grants, scholarships, and other financial aid opportunities. Students should work with Life Pacific University's financial aid team to determine eligibility and available options.
LPU likewise notes that individual Church Partner costs can vary according to the academic program, site fees, financial aid eligibility, and optional housing. Education where you are. Formation where you belong. Ministry where you serve.
Online education provides flexibility and access to academic learning. But education becomes more powerful when it is connected to people, community, mentorship, and real ministry.
