Avoid Annual Tuition Increase by Prepaying for Courses
How it Works
Tuition will increase this summer (3.1% which is $40 per course). You can avoid this increase by prepaying for courses you select at current rates by May 31, 2024.
Explanation
Each year Redemption adjusts tuition to keep pace with inflation using the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as a reference for such increases. This is the first and only planned increase for 2024. Redemption is committed to keeping theological instruction affordable and uses other comparisons to measure this as well. (Such as median household income and the average monthly used car payment.)
In addition to these protections Redemption doesn’t sign up students for debt or hold any additional financial obligations over students who decide to disenroll.
Refund Policy Prepaid Courses
The only commitment you are making by prepaying for a course is to minimally “audit” prepaid course materials at some point. Auditing is having non-graded access to course materials. For this reason, the Course Content Services Fee for each prepaid course ($475) is not refundable. However, if a student disenrolls before taking a prepaid course, the tuition portion of that course will be refunded.
Both the Course Content Services Fee ($475) and Tuition for Mentoring ($823) are prepaid together for each prepaid course at the current rate total of $1,298 for each course.
A prepayment only covers the initial registration cost for a course. Additional fees a student might incur, such as retake or extension fees are paid at whatever the current rates for those fees are.
