Financial Information Biola University seeks to provide a qua lity education for all its stu­ dents at the most reasonable cost possible. As a private, non-profit institution, Biola University receives no support from taxes or other public funds. Tuition paid by the students does not cover the costs of providing a quality education . Consequently, every studen t who attends Biola University receives a substantial subsidy made possible by the gifts of alumni, individual friends, interested churches and, in a few cases, businesses and corporations. The expenses of students at Biola University are shown in the follow­ ing schedules. The University reserves the ri ght to change all student charges, modify its services, or change its programs of study should economic conditions, curricu lum revisions or national emergency make it necessa ry to do so. Application Fee An application fee of $45 must accompany each application. This fee is non-refundable. Applications for spring received after December 15, or for fall received after March 1 must be accompanied by a fee of $55 rather than $45.
