Financial Aid

Tuition, Financial Aid, & Scholarships

Effective Fall 2025, Visible Music College has chosen not to participate in federal Title IV programs and therefore does not offer federal financial aid. This decision allows us to remain mission-focused and reduce long-term student debt. Instead, we provide institutional scholarships, church partnership awards, FAFSA-based scholarship matching, work-study opportunities, and 0% interest payment plans, all designed to help students graduate with as little debt as possible while pursuing their calling.
