VES INSTITUTIONAL GRANTS

Scholarships and Financial Aid

Veritas Evangelical Seminary does not accept federal student loans or other federal aid programs. VES operates on a no-debt policy and encourages students to approach their tuition in like manner. On occasion when funds are available (inquire at the Business Office for availability), VES institutional scholarships (e.g. veterans, full-time pastors, international students) are available to degree students who have usually completed a minimum of nine (9) graduate units of coursework with a G.P.A. of 3.0 or better. Scholarship applications may be requested from the Business Office and returned to the Financial Aid Committee for evaluation. Each scholarship award is based on need, Christian character, G.P.A., ministry, and academic status. Awards are distributed prior to the registration period.

Veterans Benefits

Though Veritas Evangelical Seminary programs are currently not approved for government issued veteran’s benefits, the Seminary will work toward approval immediately after receiving California State authorization of VES graduate programs. Veterans who are entitled to the G.I. Bill (educational benefits) are encouraged to apply for VES Veteran's Tuition Scholarships at any time. The tuition award would cover up to a maximum of 30% of your tuition costs and is based on the same criteria listed above. This program may be discontinued at any time due to VES policy and financial changes.

Non-discriminatory Policy

Veritas Evangelical Seminary admits Christian students of any race, color, national and ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the Seminary. Veritas Evangelical does not discriminate on the basis of race, age, ethnic background, color, nationality, or non-disqualifying handicap in its administration and educational policies, admissions policies, financial grants, and other school-administered programs.
