2026–2027

Cost of Attendance

Review Ecclesia College’s estimated Cost of Attendance budgets for Springdale Campus and EC Online students for the 2026–2027 academic year.

What Cost of Attendance Means

More than tuition and fees.

Cost of Attendance is a financial-aid budget—not necessarily your Ecclesia bill.

It combines tuition and required fees with estimated educational and living expenses that a student may have during the academic year.

Cost of Attendance is used when determining financial-aid eligibility. Some components may be charged directly by Ecclesia, while others are estimated allowances for expenses such as books, transportation, personal needs, housing, and food.

Your actual expenses may be higher or lower depending on your enrollment, living arrangement, personal choices, and individual circumstances.

Planning Your Cost

Your Cost of Attendance and your bill serve different purposes.

Your Ecclesia student account reflects charges that apply directly to your enrollment and, when applicable, housing and other College services.

Cost of Attendance is broader. It includes estimated expenses that may never appear on your Ecclesia bill, but that are considered when determining financial-aid eligibility.

Scholarships, grants, and other financial aid may reduce the amount you ultimately need to pay or finance.
