Tuition & Fees FAQ

​

• Is there an application fee? No, applying to Forge Theological Seminary is completely free. 

• When do I pay? Students who have already completed the application process are eligible to begin their subscriptions. 

• How do I pay? Using the links provided above, select your program and initiate your monthly subscription. All students are required to maintain their tuition subscription during enrollment. Canceling a tuition subscription while enrolled will result in the student being placed in probationary status and(or) removal from enrollment. 

• Will my tuition increase? We guarantee no tuition increases for students who are presently subscribed to a monthly payment plan. 

• Is there another method of payment? Because we have sought to keep our tuition costs as affordable as possible, there is no other method of payment. 

• What if I miss a payment? Students who miss one payment are placed on probationary status for a period of one week or more (as to be determined by the administration). We will attempt to draft your account an additional time to cover the missed payment. Students who miss a payment and neglect to communicate with our office will have their enrollment ended and will be billed for whatever outstanding fees are owed. Failure to meet financial expectations will result in added fees (3% monthly), the withholding of all student records, and potential reporting to credit service agencies. Students who experience financial difficulty during their enrolment should contact the finance office via email. 

• I do not wish to continue in my program. How do I end my subscription? End your subscription through your PayPal account. Contact registrar@forge.education to end enrollment. Canceling a tuition subscription does not end a student's financial obligation until enrollment has been concluded. 

• May I pause my program? Programs may be paused only when you are not presently enrolled in a course. Students who are between courses may contact registrar@forge.education and explain their desire to pause their studies. Cancel your subscription through your PayPal account. Students who wish to withdraw from a course should contact our office via email. 

• When do I pay my graduation fee? Students who complete the requirements of their program may apply for graduation by contacting registrar@forge.education. Upon approval, you may pay the fee. 

• Is there a transcript fee? Yes, the fee for an official transcript is $8. 

• Is there a cost to transfer credit? No, there is no fee associated with credit transfers for students who have an active payment subscription.
