Blue Mountain Christian University (BMCU), formerly Blue Mountain College, is a private Baptist college in Blue Mountain, Mississippi. Founded as a women's college in 1873, the college's board of trustees voted unanimously for the college to become coeducational in 2005. The university offers baccalaureate degrees as well as graduate programs.
The numbers tell a mixed story here: with a $18,062 average net price and relatively low median debt of $13,750, this small Baptist university in rural Mississippi is affordable — but a 51% graduation rate and median earnings of just $29,200 a decade out raise real questions about outcomes. Worth considering if you're drawn to a tight-knit, faith-centered community and have a clear academic plan, but the retention and graduation figures suggest many students struggle to finish, so ask hard questions about support resources before committing.
