Course Fees



  • Tuition Fees

    All online courses are valued at 3 credits. Clearwater College 2020 tuition rate is $180 per credit so the tuition fee for online courses is $540 per course. A portion of this fee goes to Zondervan, a portion goes to the professor overseeing each course, and a portion goes to Clearwater College to cover the costs of administrating the course (e.g. setting up student files, tracking grades, etc.). Tuition fees are reviewed on an annual basis and subject to increase at the discretion of the college board.

  • Book Costs
