[MARCH 25, 2005]
Lincoln Christian
College, a four-year private college, has put an end to the
confusing pricing structure of a college education. At the same
time, the college has taken the necessary steps to combat the
skyrocketing costs of a quality higher education.
|
Lincoln Christian College has
eliminated the typical college pricing structure by creating an
all-inclusive bottom line cost for an education. The all-inclusive
cost and scholarship package for full-time students includes
tuition, room, board and books. All confusing college fees have been
eliminated. There are no hidden costs.
No student will pay more than
$10,700, which is 30 percent less than the current cost to attend
LCC. Additional grants and scholarships may further reduce the
bottom-line cost of an education from this private, distinctively
Christian college.
While other colleges are increasing
tuition by as much as 15 percent, Lincoln Christian College is
reducing the total price of a college education by providing each
student with at least $4,500 in scholarships.

LCC President Keith Ray commented:
"This is a proactive move to make a dynamic college education
affordable without sacrificing quality or value, and it is our
desire that our students will graduate with little or no debt. It is
also a way that the college can encourage students of our community
to continue to live, grow and serve in central Illinois after
graduation."
Lincoln Christian College offers
majors in multiple Christian vocations as well as business,
counseling and teacher education. The LCC promise to students is to
help them discover their gifting, passion and calling through a
variety of learning opportunities -- inside and outside the
classroom -- under the guidance of a faculty the college
administration says is second to none.
