COST MATTERS
One of the reasons Northpoint College exists is to bridge the gap between a world-class education
and ministry preparation, and the spiraling costs of higher learning.
We want to help you graduate debt free and step into your calling!
THE NORTHPOINT COST DIFFERENCE
Our partnership with Grand Rapids First has allowed us to use the facility of the local church in a way that dramatically decreases costs for traditional students.
Here's what that savings look like:

If you qualify for the maximum Pell Grant, your yearly out-of-pocket cost for tuition could be as low as $5,445. That's something that a steady part-time job or great full-time summer job can cover. That's not even considering the addition of any SCHOLARSHIPS you might qualify for!

Tuition and Fees
Below is a more detailed breakdown of what it will cost to attend Northpoint. The fees shown represent a full-time student attending for an entire year. Please remember that book costs fluctuate, and housing costs should be considered. This is a world-class academic experience that won't break the bank.
Take a look and see for yourself.

​Payment Deferment Plan:
-
A Payment Deferment Plan is available to students who demonstrate financial need and wish to spread their tuition and fee payments throughout the semester.
-
Eligibility for the Payment Deferment Plan is not guaranteed by the application alone. Approval is based on a review of each applicant’s payment history and financial need.
-
Students who have made two or more late payments in the previous semester may be ineligible for the deferment plan and will be required to pay the full amount of tuition and fees at the start of the semester.
-
Eligible students can apply by completing the application form available in Populi and paying a $50 enrollment fee.
-
The total amount owed will be divided into four equal payments, each due by the 15th of every month of the semester.
-
A late payment fee of $25 will be assessed for payments received after the 15th of each month.
Please contact the Student Accounts Department (dtuttle@northpointcollege.edu) with any questions.
Financial Aid and Planning
Federal Financial Aid
Northpoint students may apply for federal aid by completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The priority deadline for Financial Aid is March 1 for fall semesters and November 1 for spring semesters. FAFSAs will be accepted after these dates, but available aid may be limited.
Housing Information
While Northpoint College offers convenient scheduling to minimize the need for housing and additional expenses, for some students it may be necessary or desirable. Most students will only need one night per week unless involved with an internship. Visit the Housing Page to learn more about available housing options.
