Additional Costs
Room and Board The weighted average for room and board and other expenses is generated as follows:
  • (amount for on-campus room, board and other expenses * # of students living on-campus.
  • + amount for off-campus (with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus with family
  • + amount for off-campus (not with family) room, board and other expenses * # of students living off-campus not with family)
divided by the total # of students. Students whose living arrangements are unknown are excluded from the calculation. For some institutions the # of students by living arrangement will be known, but dollar amounts will not be known. In this case the # of students with no corresponding dollar amount will be excluded from the denominator.

REVIEWS

Read What Students Are Saying
Word of Life has an extremely rigorous academic environment. The teachers and professors are very knowledgable and provide great insight during their class sessions. You will not only be able to understand what the Bible is talking about in its amazing 66 books but how you can apply its message to your life.
Laura from Connecticut
For someone that thought I knew a lot, it turns out I don't. There is a lot of information to take in and it can seem overwhelming sometimes but if you are a diligent worker and want to be challenged, you will make it through with no worries and at the same time have your mind blown away. It's not only head knowledge, there are some many opportunities to put into practice what you have learned! Word of Life's goal is to equip you for the christian life and they do a great job at it.
Charlotte from Rhinelander, WI
Word of Life Bible Institute (WOLBI) is prepared to teach you, not only in the classroom, but through offering daily experiences. If you're willing to learn, you will gain much knowledge.
