Fees

 The finances of Cornerstone are part of our journey of faith and trust in God. We are able to keep the costs at a low level, because we do not pay our staff. Just like most of our students, also our staff depends on God to supply their finances through the support they receive from their church, family and friends. The fees for 2024 – 2025 are:
