Tuition & Payment Plan Policy 

Affordable. Flexible. Rooted in Justice.

At City Nation University, we believe that cost should never be a barrier to purpose. Our tuition structure reflects our commitment to accessible, Spirit-led education for all—especially those from historically marginalized and underserved communities. Whether you enroll full-time, part-time, or in a certificate track, we offer flexible payment plans to help you engage your calling without unnecessary financial strain.

  • Late payments may result in limited access to course materials or withdrawal from the program. We encourage communication if financial hardship arises.

Education is a sacred right—not a privilege. We’re committed to walking with you, not just enrolling you.
