Finances

Blue Mountain Christian University is a university supported by the Mississippi Baptist Convention. Payments by students of tuition and fees amount to approximately forty percent (40%) of the University's total operating costs. For the remainder of its operating needs, the University depends primarily on the generous support of its alumnae/alumni, friends, and the Mississippi Baptist Convention through the Cooperative Program. In effect, this added support makes it possible to keep tuition costs considerably below the national average for independent colleges and universities. Every possible effort is made to avoid tuition increases, but fluctuating economic conditions make it necessary for the University to reserve the right to revise its fee charges at the beginning of any semester without notice.

Please note that no financial information from the Business Office can be released over the telephone. The student must request financial information in person.

 

Payment of Charges

Payment is due at registration. A deferred payment plan is available through the Business Office.

NOTE: All semester expenses (minus financial aid) must be paid before the first day of class. Students who have not paid in full or set up a payment plan will be withdrawn from classes after the registration deadline (one week into the semester). Final grades and future enrollment are withheld until all balances are paid. Accounts unpaid 90 days after the semester may incur interest and be sent to collections. Payments can be made online, by phone, mail, or in person. A 3% convenience fee applies to debit/credit card payments. Payment plans are available through the Business Office.
