Financial Aid
The Financial Aid Office exists to assist students and parents in locating financial resources to help cover the cost of education at New Hope Christian College.
Our goal is to promote the mission of New Hope Christian College by helping students fund their education through public, private, and institutional resources.

This is one of the most important investments you will make in your life - as you answer the call of Jesus. New Hope Christian College is nationally accredited by the Association of Biblical Higher Education (ABHE) and we offer financial aid and scholarships.
