Tuition Increase, Effective Fall 2026

IAU remains deeply committed to its Christian mission of providing accessible, student-centered education. Since its founding, the University has worked diligently to keep tuition as low and affordable as possible so that students from diverse backgrounds may pursue their academic and professional goals.

In recent years, however, the cost of operating in California has increased significantly. Factors including the University’s planned campus relocation, statewide minimum wage increases, and the overall rise in the cost of living have created additional operational expenses for the institution. After careful consideration, IAU must implement a modest tuition increase beginning Fall 2026 in order to sustain the quality of instruction, student services, and academic resources that support students’ success.

This decision was made thoughtfully and with great care. IAU remains committed to stewardship and will continue striving to keep tuition as affordable as possible while fulfilling its mission to serve students with excellence and integrity.

IAU sincerely appreciates the continued support and trust of its students and the Blue Eagle community.
