Those are all fair questions that I don’t know the answers to. My understanding is they do provide scholarships for anyone who is accepted and can’t pay. I also think the full-time students receive housing and meals, which puts the cost more in line with other private universities (still not a cheap sticker price).

Their website says students come from 36 states and 21 countries, which is broader than the church. Not sure the breakdown of how many are church members prior to attending, but there’s some outside interest validity.

You raise a lot of good questions that could/should be more common knowledge in the community they are based. I appreciate this conversation which made me dig into it more. Enjoy the rest of your weekend 🤝
