About This School

The Master's University and Seminary is a private nonprofit institution located in Santa Clarita, California with approximately 1,622 undergraduate students enrolled. The Master's University and Seminary has an open or accessible admissions process, with an acceptance rate of 84%. The average net price after financial aid is $32,647 per year. The graduation rate is 68%, and the typical graduate earns $52,100 within 10 years of enrollment.

Worth considering if you're a committed Christian student looking for a tight-knit, faith-integrated academic community — the 85% freshman retention rate suggests students who enroll tend to stick around and feel at home. That said, the 64% graduation rate means roughly 1 in 3 students doesn't finish, which is a real concern worth asking the school about directly. The $52,100 median earnings at 10 years is modest, though the relatively low $20,500 median debt softens that picture somewhat.
