Additional Lamoni Campus & General Fees

2023-24 Cost of Attendance

Graceland is much more affordable than most people think, and we want to ensure our tuition price is closer to what people actually pay. So we are transforming our base tuition price from $32,500 to $19,950 on the Lamoni campus beginning in the 2024-25 academic year. As you consider college, you want a simple, easy-to-understand formula designed to ensure that the one-of-a-kind Graceland Experience is within reach for your family.
