FAQs

Why do our students choose to study at Eastwest College?
The purpose of the college is to train our students for cross-cultural Christian service overseas. Many of these placements will demand a proficiency in English and necessitate a familiarity with other cultures. The course is delivered in English and through living, studying and working in teams as a multinational community.
We are a fully residential college for overseas students, which is part of our philosophy and training, enabling us to give students a full cross-cultural experience along with the opportunity to study in preparation for their service overseas.
Why are Eastwest College’s fees low?
All staff at the college are volunteers, both teaching and non-teaching staff, all living ‘by faith’, trusting in God for their own financial support. The college pays no salaries whatsoever. Most are supported financially by churches, friends and supportive trusts.
This non-payment of salaries is a deliberate policy to keep the student fees low to reduce the cost of training. It also enables the college staff to practice the ‘living by faith’ life in front of our students, many of whom will be unsalaried in the future and who will be in no position to repay any student debts.
Fees are made up of tuition fees plus accommodation fees. Domestic students receive a small government subsidy so their fees are lower than those of overseas students.
The college campus has been purpose-built and mostly paid for through the donations of friends and supporters of the college who believe in world mission.
