  • The output is only an estimate and not a guarantee of the actual amount the student may be charged; it is not binding on the Secretary, the institution of higher education, or the State; and it may change, subject to the availability of financial assistance, State appropriations, and other factors. The student must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to be eligible for, and receive, an actual financial aid award that includes federal grant, loan, or work-study assistance.
  • The estimated price does not include room and board, books and supplies, &c. (where applicable) and is based on previous years' tuition and fees data. Tuition and fees may vary by program. Please contact this institution for detailed price information.

  • 1 Grant or scholarship aid includes aid awarded, from the federal government, state or local government, the institution, and other sources known by the institution.
  • Nazarene Bible College is primarily dedicated to adult education. As such, most NBC students have prior college experience and do not attend classes full time. This reduces the number of students who may be categorized as first-time, full-time freshman.

  • For more information on Student Financial Assistance Programs or to apply for financial aid via the web, visit Federal Student Aid.
  • This institution did not admit full-time first-time undergraduate-level students in 2021-2022, therefore net price information was not reported.

First-to-Second Year Retention Rates

Retention rates measure the percentage of first-time students who are seeking bachelor's degrees who return to the institution to continue their studies the following fall.

Retention Rates for First-Time Students Pursuing Bachelor's Degrees
Student retention:Part-time students: 44%
Percentage of Students Who Began Their Studies in Fall 2021 and Returned in Fall 2022
  • Interpret data with caution due to small cohort of part-time, first-time students. This does not reflect that 6 of 9 enrolled in classes during the winter 2022 term. Not every active degree student enrolls in every sequential term.
Overall Graduation Rate and Transfer-Out Rate

The overall graduation rate is also known as the "Student Right to Know" or IPEDS graduation rate. It tracks the progress of students who began their studies as full-time, first-time degree- or certificate-seeking students to see if they complete a degree or other award such as a certificate within 150% of "normal time" for completing the program in which they are enrolled.

Some institutions also report a transfer-out rate, which is the percentage of the full-time, first-time students who transferred to another institution without completing at the current institution.

Note that not all students at the institution are tracked for these rates. Students who have already attended another postsecondary institution, or who began their studies on a part-time basis, are not tracked for this rate.

  • Interpret data with caution due to small cohort of full-time, first-time students. NBC is a fully online education institution that enrolls working adults who are typically less than full time, and almost always come to us as transfer students with prior coursework. This minimal first time full time student enrollment renders extreme fluctuations in graduation rates.
