Due to the generosity of commissioning churches in the Southern Baptist Convention, Southeastern is able to provide a substantial amount of aid to students who are members of SBC-affiliated churches. This is equivalent to 50% of what a student would normally pay for tuition and fees and is one of Southeastern's most significant sources of financial aid.
