Tuition Support for Every Student
Portland Bible College tuition costs are kept low in part by the generosity of Mannahouse Church, which founded and continues to support PBC.
In addition to this, we have numerous scholarships available for qualifying students. Check out the links below for details. We are excited to have you join us!
