Jessup University seeks to train Christians who serve in their churches and make a Kingdom impact.
The financial support from our partner churches makes this possible.
Become a Partner Church
Would your church like to become a “Partner Church” to assist Jessup University in its mission of training Christians for leadership in the Church and society? All funds donated on a regular and consistent basis by the church go toward our primary need of student scholarships. However, a church can give to specific Jessup programming of the church’s choosing if agreed upon by the Director of Church Relations as an acceptable partnership. Please contact us to find out how to begin a partnership with Jessup.

The Benefits of Partnership
As we educate the next generation of church leaders, we’re excited to offer several tuition discounts and resources to our partner churches who generously support this mission.
Church Partnership Grant (For Church Members)
Church Partnership Grant
For Traditional Students: $2,000 per year (1/2 disbursed each semester).
For Online & Graduate Students: 10% discount of tuition charged
Eligibility: This need-based grant is available to NEW students who, at the time of initial enrollment, are members of/actively participating in a church that financially supports Jessup University. CURRENT students may also apply IF the student was a member of/actively participating in a partner church at the time of initial enrollment; OR the church becomes a partner while the student is currently enrolled; AND that church continues to be the student’s church home. If other scholarships or grants are secured by a Traditional Student after the awarding of a Church Partnership Grant, the amount may be reduced. This grant recognizes both the church’s partnership with Jessup and the recipient’s past contribution to the church. Receiving this grant may not be tied to future participation or involvement at the church. Certificate Program Students are not eligible for this scholarship.
Contact admissions@jessup.edu for more information.
Ministry Worker’s Grant (For Church Staff)
Ministry Worker’s Grant
For PT staff: 20% tuition discount for Graduate and Online programs
For FT staff: 40% tuition discount for Graduate and Online programs

Pastors-in-Training (PIT) Scholarship
Over the years, Jessup University has been blessed with endowments that have been dedicated to support students who are training for local church ministry. Some of these endowments are now being utilized to underwrite Pastors in Training (PIT) Scholarships. Jessup is committed to substantially lessen or eliminate debt for ministry students.
We encourage both male and female applicants, as well as both undergraduate and graduate students who are pursuing God’s call into local church ministry. Scholarships will be assigned first to new students. Residual funds may be allocated as scholarships to continuing students, based on reapplication each year.

Center for Church Health
The Center for Church Health encourages and equips pastors through events, resources, and relationships.
The Center is vital to the mission of Jessup University: educating transformational leaders for the glory of God, in partnership with the Church.
Center for Bible Study
Jessup University’s Center for Bible Study provides high-quality, accessible Bible education for all.
Learn to read the Bible in its historical context with pastoral sensitivity to the most pressing issues of our day. Our teachers are biblical scholars who are deeply committed to the life of the local Church.
See how your support is impacting the next generation of pastors and church leaders.
