Costs

Solid training now is an investment that pays dividends for many years to come in the form of increased ministry effectiveness. Good quality higher education tends to be expensive due to the high cost of maintaining a professional faculty, student support services, infrastructure, and accreditation. However, in the interest of furthering God’s Kingdom and equipping His people for service, the Londen Institute and Hope International University have made every effort to keep prices affordable. See Tuition and Fees for current rates.
