BMCU Cost of Attendance

Cost of attendance (COA) is an estimate of what it costs the typical student to attend Blue Mountain Christian University for a period of enrollment. COA covers more than just college tuition and fees; it takes into account a student’s basic living expenses as well.

It’s important to review and understand COA as schools are prohibited from providing students with a total financial aid award which exceeds their cost of attendance.
