Both the college and seminary divisions require that all fees and tuition be paid in full at the time of enrollment. However, if an installment plan is needed, one of the following may be requested. (Should a payment plan be selected, the student becomes liable for the full amount.
PLAN I - Pay as you go. The student may enroll and pay for each course. There are NO Discounts or Scholarships allowed with this plan.
PLAN II - Should the student elect to pay the account in full with the application for minimum of 30 hours, the student receives a 20% discount from the tuition cost only. It does not apply to any accompanying fees and no other discounts are applicable..
PLAN III - Should the student elect to make monthly payments, the student is allowed to make a down payment of $150.00 with their application and the balance is drafted through the FACTS Tuition Management System. The Student is allowed 12 monthly payments. Limited scholarships may apply.
Important Notice Concerning Handling of Accounts
- Foreign Students must use U.S. Postal Money Orders ONLY. The only exception to this is for students enrolled and working through the Canadian Office. Such students pay all fees and tuition in Canadian currency.
- Students electing to use one of the payment plans will not receive a diploma or degree at graduation time unless their accounts have been paid in full and all indebtedness with the institution has been cleared.
- The $45.00 Application/Evaluation Fee can be applied toward the down payment.
- If a student enrolls for a 60-hour program, the entire program must be paid through one installment plan rather than through two 30-hour installments.
Refunds will be given only if the student withdraws within 15 days after receiving the study materials. In case of involuntary call to military duty, the college and seminary will refund 70% of the remaining unused tuition. The application/evaluation fee, as well as the matriculation fee, is non-refundable. Students are asked to remember that signing the application constitutes a contract with Bethany for the entire amount of the program.
VA Refunds
Bethany maintains a prorated refund policy for students receiving Veteran benefits while attending on-site classes. Only students attending on-site classes can qualify for Veteran benefits.
The Spousal Scholarship is set up for only husbands and wives who wish to study during the same time frame. The institution will charge the regular fee to the spouse that is in the higher-level degree program. The spouse in the lower or same level of study may receive a 50% discount on tuition only. It does not apply to fees such as the Application, Graduation, Matriculation, and Portfolio Learning Assessment fees.

1) The scholarship is effective only if the tuition discounted spouse enrolls in the program within 90 days of the enrollment of the paying spouse.
2) If a paying spouse withdraws from the school, the tuition discounted spouse must also withdraw or convert to a paid program.
3) The paying spouse must enroll for a minimum of 30 semester hours. Part-time students who pay for less than 30 hours are ineligible.

A former Bethany student has made this scholarship available. It is a limited Pioneer Pastor Scholarship Fund created to assist pastors over the age of 55 who are in need of financial assistance. Those who feel they qualify are asked to contact the Dean of Students. This should be done in writing, explaining the financial situation and desire to study.
