The Office of Student Financial Services at The King's University is committed to helping you understand all of the resources available to fund your education. Financial Aid is available to assist those qualified students who desire to attend The King's but may lack the financial means to do so. The primary responsibility for financing an education belongs to the student and his/her family. Financial Aid is based upon need. Need is defined as the difference between the cost of attending The King's and the Expected Family Contribution (EFC) toward the cost. The "Free Application for Federal Student Aid" (FAFSA) is the form from which the EFC is calculated. It is never too early to begin exploring financial aid options. We encourage future and current students to start investigating as soon as possible. Students must demonstrate eligibility to receive Financial Aid.
An essential part of the learning experience for every full-time undergraduate student at The King's University is the opportunity to serve in one or more specific ministry area(s) within a local church. These Ministry Training programs are designed to provide in-depth participation in dynamic areas of ministry at Gateway Church, students at the TKU main campus, or other associated local churches for students attending a TKU branch campus. This "hands-on" experience serves as a vital training ground for any student seeking vocational ministry. Each TKU undergraduate student will participate in weekly involvement in the life and ministries of the church.
TKU Student Life is committed to providing a vibrant atmosphere for students to connect with God and each other. Whether eating lunch in the café, worshipping in the chapel, or participating in intramural sports, there are countless opportunities to develop meaningful relationships within a Christ-centered community.
Reaching out to people in our community and around the world is of great importance to us here at The King's University. Throughout the year, we take groups to minister the gospel of Jesus Christ and show His love to those in need. These trips are designed to allow students to join in efforts locally, nationally, and internationally. Missions both locally and internationally transform the people that are served, but through serving and giving of time, your heart is changed as well.
