Interest-Free Installment Payment Plan

West Coast Baptist College's commitment to graduating students without debt influences all of our policy decisions, including collection of student payments. To begin a semester, students are required to pay only 20% of their semester costs with the remaining 80% of their bill being divided among four additional payments. Many of WCBC's students choose to follow this interest-free installment plan which allows them to earn money for their training as they are actively enrolled.

Private scholarships are provided by private organizations that are outside WCBC's direct control or influence. Common private scholarships include those provided by an employer, foundation, or community group, and many WCBC students have received this kind of outside funding. Every private scholarship has its own application process and requirements for eligibility, and applying for these scholarships requires diligence and determination. However, a student who receives just a few of these can see significant financial benefits.

Several services have been built by third-parties to help college students identify and apply for these private scholarships. WCBC encourages its students to review these and use the benefits they provide. For easy access, links are provided below to a couple of these services.

Scholarship money will be applied directly to the student's bill unless otherwise stipulated. WCBC's OPE ID number is 04258300, and all funds should be sent to West Coast Baptist College, ATTN: Finance Office, 4010 E. Lancaster Blvd., Lancaster, CA 93535.

Various Tax Benefits

Part of the Office of Financial Aid's role is to identify potential resources and help the students know where and how to access them. A noteworthy benefit of WCBC's accreditation is WCBC's "eligible institution" status with the U.S. Department of Education. This official status designation allows WCBC students to take advantage of a variety of annual tax benefits intended to reimburse some college expenses.
