Financial Aid

Financial aid at Great Commission University begins with the commitment of the affiliated ministries to quality education. Gifts from the affiliated ministries and faithful individuals provide major funding for the financial assistance. Great Commission University financial aid serves as a tool to meet enrollment goals of the University and attract students who would contribute to His Kingdom and the diverse student population. The goal of the financial aid is to remove financial barriers to attendance in order to maintain access for qualified students.

The University does not yet offer scholarships from Federal or State Financial Aid Programs including Title IV at this time. However, various assistance programs are offered by the University and its affiliate ministries.


All aid granted is based on the availability of funds.

Application Process and Forms

The scholarship application forms are available on Populi. Updated financial aid information and application forms are made available at least 60 days prior to the deadline. Specific instructions and eligibility information are included on the page of the financial aid program on Populi. Please contact any application questions to the Financial Aid Office by email at studentfinance@gcuniv.org.

Financial aid recipients are notified by email regarding award status at least 21 days prior to the payment deadline.
