Blue Mountain College


Blue Mountain College
is a senior college supported by the Mississippi Baptist Convention. Payments by students of tuition and fees amount to approximately fifty percent of the total operating costs.  For the remainder of its operating needs, the College 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.

Every effort is made to avoid tuition increases, however fluctuating economic conditions make it necessary for the College to increase tuition and fees.  The College reserves the right to revise its fee charges at the beginning of any semester without notice.

All students taking less than 12 hours do not pay a Student Activity Fee.  Therefore, they must purchase an ID card ($5) in the Office of Public Relations and a parking decal ($5) in the Office of Enrollment Services and Student Life.

LOST IDS:  Students will be charged $5 for an ID card replacement and should allow five days for production.



 

Minimum Payment

At the time of registration, all students must pay a minimum of $400.  This amount must be paid in cash or the student's account must show a sufficient financial aid credit to cover the minimum amounts.


 

Payment of Charges

Payment is due at registration.  A deferred payment plan is available through the Office of Business Affairs, but arrangements must be made prior to enrollment.

While each full-time student is expected to pay a minimum of $400 at the beginning of each semester; part-time students must pay the total amount due.  With the approval of the Office of Business Affairs and upon payment of the deferred payment fee, a monthly payment plan may be arranged.
