KAIROS D.MIN., other programs no longer FAFSA-funded - MFG - 04-01-2026
Kairos University will end FAFSA participation at least in D. Min. and other graduate programs. Officials informally cited increasing mandated bureaucratic costs burdensome to a small program.
The University is accredited and focuses on a low graduate tuition to begin with for its primarily religious-oriented and Seminary students.

I believe them. Title IV participation requires maintaining a whole department of financial aid counselors with specific training and skills.

Oh no, Oh no, Oh no no no no... Actually, with their tuition model, for those who can afford the monthly tuition payments, they shouldn't be affected too much. Depends on each person and their personal budgeting scenario.

Yep. They said recent regulatory changes were prohibitive.
