New Students
Your Path to an Affordable Education
For all students entering 2025-26, Grace promotes a “true” tuition rate—what it actually costs to educate a student for a year—not an inflated rate that requires discounts or scholarships in order to make it appear affordable. No exorbitant fees tacked on at the end. This rate covers up to 15 hours per semester (30 credit hours per year) to ensure you graduate on time in 4 years.
For returning students who entered before 2025-26, tuition cost details are available on the Student Portal.

Housing & Dining
Residential & Commuter Students
2025-26 Housing & Dining Pricing
Meals are served on campus for all students living in residence halls, as well as commuter students who have purchased a dining plan. On-campus students can choose from up to six dining options, depending on what residence hall they are living in. Commuter students can also purchase a meal plan from three different options. Coffee, snacks, and a la carte options are available at Kahawa Café.
Residential Students
Flexible meal plans offer students creative options to accommodate financial needs while providing meals from our wonderful dining hall. Rather than purchasing meals weekly, meal plan cost is per semester. Students purchase a block of meals to use throughout the semester, giving them the convenience to decide when to use those meals.
