• Academic, social and spiritual factors are considered. It is helpful to provide as much relevant information as possible to determine whether there will be a good match between the applicant and the university.

NOTE: Each student and their family should be ready to pay at least $19,000 dollars annually toward tuition, room and board, insurance and textbook expenses. Approximately 125 International students from all over the world attend JBU. A limited amount of scholarship money is available, and therefore, the university can only offer certain amounts of scholarships per student.

If you are accepted for admission we require an $9,000 deposit to the university. (This deposit is refundable only if you do not actually enroll.)
