A Note from the Director of Financial Aid

Investing in a college education stands unmatched in value and impact by broadening career horizons, improving job security, and increasing long-term earning potential. Graduates of Christian universities are highly sought after by employers for their reputation as dedicated, ethical, and purpose-driven professionals.

At Dallas Baptist University, our mission for more than a century has been to transform the lives of students who will transform the world, all for the glory of God. As a student at DBU, you will cultivate a life of meaning and purpose through our Christ-centered education. Our holistic approach equips you with the skills employers value most—leadership, problem-solving, communication, and sound judgment—while also nurturing your spiritual and personal growth.

We know that investing in your future also means making important financial decisions. That’s why 86% of our students receive some form of financial assistance through state, federal, and university programs. Our caring Financial Aid Counselors are here to walk alongside you every step of the way, providing individualized guidance and support to help you understand your options and make DBU an affordable reality.

Our commitment to you extends beyond academic success and career preparation. We believe, as Jeremiah 29:11 reminds us, that God has a plan to prosper you and give you hope and a future. We want you to feel confident in His calling as you take this next step in your educational journey.

Please don’t hesitate to contact our office—we are here to serve you. You can reach us at (214) 333-5363 or finaid@dbu.edu.

Blessings,
Monica Smart
