Financial Information
Payments by students of tuition and fees amount to a small percent of the costs of operating the Puerto Rico Baptist College. For the remainder of the operating costs, the
College depends upon the generous support of churches and individuals around the world who believe in what the College is doing.
Every possible effort is made by the College to avoid increases in the students’ costs and to keep them at a reasonable and acceptable level. However, the College reserves the right to change the charges for tuition, fees, and room and board without written notice.
MISCELLANEOUS COSTS
Textbooks, supplies, laundry and incidentals may total $200 per semester, depending, of course, on the individual student.

financial obligations as well as spiritual commitments.
