SOTW is seen as part of the mission of those working together as ministries without borders.  The school is subsidised from these church communities giving generously at annual Bible Weeks. This means that the tuition fees at SOTW are surprisingly low when compared to other accredited higher educational institutions offering similar courses.

The accommodation fees do not include utility bills.  These vary with usage from house to house. As a rough guide, we would estimate you need to budget £500 for the year.

We strongly recommend that you take up SOTW accommodation, especially if you are new to the city. There is much to be gained from sharing a house with those who are studying the same course as you.  The SOTW houses are all in close vicinity. The discussion and interaction between students sharing life and a course is priceless.
