Take the Global Bridge! To Affordable Education
A Great Christian Education
Doesn’t have to Cost you a Fortune.
Save Money While Investing In Your Future.
Investment
The Global Bridge combines ministry and academics, and participants pay separately for these elements (tuition and academic fees are paid directly to Crown College and flights and in-country expenses are paid to Students International).
Invest in more than a degree—invest in who you’re becoming. The Global Bridge isn’t just affordable, it’s life-changing: earn college credit, grow your faith, and serve others at a price that is far less than most private Christian colleges.
The program combines academics and ministry: tuition and fees are paid directly to Crown College, while flights and in-country expenses are paid to Students International. You can make additional savings through financial aid and fundraising. Your future is worth it—and so are the lives you’ll impact along the way.
For Crown College expenses: Tuition is due prior to the start of each semester (mid-August and mid-January).
For Students International expenses are paid in monthly installments. You can obtain monthly supporters that don’t need to donate all at once.
Costs are comparable to four-year public in-state universities and significantly less than most private Christian universities. (Sourced here.)
While this is a significant amount of money, it is quite inexpensive for a private Christian college experience. The cross-cultural elements, built-in discipleship, language acquisition, leadership development and other unique features of the Global Bridge program will add depth to your life experience and resumé.
Costs are subject to change.
Payment
How Can I Pay for all of This?
As ministry plays a significant part of the Global Bridge, we encourage participants to raise support to defray costs of the in-country expenses and airfare. SI provides a detailed fundraising packet as part of the pre-departure process. In the past, students have raised an average of $3,000-$9,000. Because it is not guaranteed, you should view fundraising as supplemental rather than a main source of funding. SI will issue a tax-deductible receipt for money fundraised and donated to SI. Fundraised money is not refundable because it is a donation and not a payment.
Most students who attend Crown are eligible for some form of financial aid to cover their college tuition costs. Details are available through Crown College Financial Aid. An Admissions Counselor will walk you through this process.
Students International Refund Policy
Because Students International is a non-profit organization that provides tax deductible receipts for all contributions, we cannot provide refunds for any money applied to your account (including money raised from donors or paid by you or your parents). If you do not complete a term for whatever reason, SI cannot refund any monies that have been given as a charitable donation. This includes donations given by you or your parents.
