About This School

Trinity Bible College and Graduate School is a private nonprofit institution located in Ellendale, North Dakota with approximately 138 undergraduate students enrolled. The school is moderately selective, accepting approximately 36% of applicants. The average net price after financial aid is $20,396 per year. The graduation rate is 39%, and the typical graduate earns $31,700 within 10 years of enrollment.

Trinity Bible College and Graduate School (TBCGS) is a private bible college and graduate school in Ellendale, North Dakota. It is affiliated with the Assemblies of God USA.

The numbers tell a mixed story here: a 39% graduation rate means fewer than half of students who start actually finish, and median earnings of $31,700 a decade out make the $20,396 annual net price worth scrutinizing carefully. That said, debt at graduation is a relatively manageable $16,043, and if you're specifically pursuing Assemblies of God ministry training in a tight-knit, faith-centered environment, this small community of 138 undergrads may be exactly the focused setting you're looking for. Go in with clear vocational goals — this is not a school where general outcomes are strong enough to justify enrolling without a specific purpose.
