Tuition and Fees

Our goal is to see you succeed! Because of EC’s commitment to students, price is no longer the deciding factor. Our deep scholarships (made possible by generous donors) make a private, Christ-centered education more accessible than ever! And you can attend EC Online while interning at Restoration Master’s Commission (ReMC) in Wichita, Kansas!

The first step is to fill out our brief application and a student services representative will walk you through the remaining steps toward earning your degree through EC Online!  For more information on applying for financial aid please see our Financial Aid Guide.

All students accepted into the EC Online ReMC Cohort receive the ReMC Ministry Scholarship!

EC’s normal tuition rate of $500 per credit hour is brought down significantly with this scholarship. If a student enrolls full time with EC Online without a scholarship, the tuition cost would come to $12,000 yearly (24 credit hours) or $6,000 per semester (12 credit hours).  However, the most an EC Online ReMC Cohort student will pay out-of-pocket for tuition is $3,200 yearly (24 credit hours), or $2,400 (18 credit hours).  Students who qualify for other forms of financial aid, such as federal Pell grants, will pay even less out-of-pocket.

For the complete EC Online Tuition and Fees schedule please click here.  EC Students who are eligible for and receive the ReMC Ministry Scholarship will pay somewhere between $400 – $799 per 3 credit hour course after the scholarship has been granted.  Out-of-pocket costs for tuition can be significantly less depending on the additional amount of federal financial aid any given student qualifies for. To find out the amount of scholarships and financial aid you qualify for, submit an application to EC and fill out a FAFSA.
