ACADemic costs and expenses

Along with tuition costs, there is an association fee of $500/semester that goes directly to KCSOM. Alternatively, you may pay the $500 plus an additional $1,175/semester for a hands on option which would include 2 days of discipleship classes a week and one 4 hour seminar class one Saturday per month, or for $200 extra per semester, you can have just the Saturday seminars included. Some Saturday seminars are required to become an enrolled student.

Financial Aid and Cost Details
Students must complete financial registration to begin courses.
A 1/3 down-payment for the semester is due at that time. Financial aid can be used towards that down-payment. Students are able to pay their entire bill before beginning courses via direct payment or financial aid, or they can take advantage of the Deferred Payment Plan which allows them to pay off their semester balance monthly over the course of the semester. There is a $60 fee added to the students ledger if the payment plan is used.
A student's bill must be paid in full before beginning classes for the next semester.
Prices do not include textbooks or miscellaneous expenses.
SAGU does allow each student to charge up to $500 in textbooks to their student ledger each semester.
Students must complete financial registration before being able to use the book charge allowance. Textbooks must be ordered through the SAGU Bookstore at www.sagustore.com in order for the student to use the $500 charge allowance.
While students are not eligible for additional SAGU institutional aid, students are encouraged to complete the FAFSA at www.fafsa.ed.gov in order to use federal aid.
Students should enter SAGU's School Code (003616) so information will be sent to SAGU for processing. Outside scholarships can also be applied to student balances.
The University Extension Program tuition rate is only available for first-time SAGU students (including transfer students) that are associated with KCSOM.
For example, a current on-campus SAGU student cannot convert to an online extension site and begin receiveing the reduced tuition rate. Additionally, students receiving reduced UEP tution pricing must do so in conjunction witht KCSOM.
