The Sterling College financial aid program exists to assist students who might not otherwise be able to attend college. Financial aid consists of scholarships, grants, awards, loans, and employment, which singly or in combination may be awarded to students, and are applied first to tuition costs. In selecting a financial aid recipient, special consideration is given to the applicant’s academic promise.

If Sterling College is the right decision for you, there is really no need to let cost stand in your way. Although Sterling is a private, Christian college, the cost to you of four years at Sterling is a lifetime investment. All fully admitted students of Sterling College receive financial aid.

The value of a Sterling education cannot be measured in dollars only. Sterling provides something that is priceless: a Christ-centered, quality, personalized education from dedicated faculty committed to helping you find your calling and realizing your personal and professional goals.

Every student admitted to Sterling College receives a single Sterling College scholarship. For students not interested in participating in an activity, the Sterling College scholarship is based solely on academics. For arts students (theatre, communication, art, music) scholarships are based on arts interest and academic record. Student athletes are awarded scholarships designated by coaches in consideration of athletic potential and academic record.
