OUR NOMINAL PRICES:
Perhaps you already knew what a degree could cost, and that many schools simply price their degrees above what the average student can afford. Why should a school charge more than is necessary for its regular operation and reasonable growth projections? The cost of a degree or the amount of time involved does not necessarily increase the quality of education. So, why pay an exorbitant fee for the very same degree that you can get elsewhere for much less money?
The goal of The New Testament Bible Church Biblical Institute is to provide students with the finest Biblical education, at the lowest possible cost. Thus, we have deliberately priced our degrees very low, because we think we can do more good for more people this way. Our educational philosophy and methods are not unique, but in the matter of finances we are unique. Our sole purpose is to train and prepare you, so that you can transform the world.
