Cost of Attendance

Pursuing an education at Boise Bible College is an investment in yourself and your future. Below is an estimated Cost of Attendance (COA). The Cost of Attendance calculated annually by the Financial Aid Department is a combination of both direct costs and indirect estimated costs.


  • Estimated Direct Costs: These are estimates for the costs you can expect to be billed to your student account. They may include tuition, fees, housing, and food costs (if living on campus and/or on the meal plan).


  • Estimated Indirect Costs: These are estimates for additional costs that you may incur while attending that are not billed to your student account. They may include transportation costs, books, course materials, supplies, equipment, personal expenses, housing, food costs (if living off campus or with parents), and loan origination fees.


Your actual overall cost will depend on several factors. These factors may include but are not limited to your housing plans and your credit enrollment level.


The following Cost of Attendance estimates are calculated based on a full-time student taking 12 credits per semester for the academic year. The COA figures listed below are estimated and subject to change at any time without notice.

Your entire financial aid award package (loans, grants, work-study, scholarships, outside assistance, private loans) cannot exceed your estimated Cost of Attendance. You could receive the full estimated Cost of Attendance in financial aid, or you may receive less. In cases where you have additional expenses that are not included in the Cost of Attendance, you can ask the Financial Aid Department about Budget Increase options.



Please note that Boise Bible College does not have married student housing so any ‘Student with Dependents in institutionally owned or operated housing’ is not applicable. Please contact the Financial Aid Department for any calculation not in the above chart including ‘Students living in on-base military housing’ or ‘in housing for which the military provides a basic allowance for housing (BAH)’ or ‘any other housing category’.
