LBC is a great value when compared with many accredited Christian and secular independent colleges.

Our goal in the Financial Aid Office is to help you bridge the gap between the cost of your education and your family's available resources. Realizing that costs do rise each year, LBC continues to provide a variety of financial aid options providing assistance to approximately 85 percent of the student body. LBC participates in the federal and state aid programs. The College also offers many scholarships, as well as other opportunities, to help students finance their education.
