The average annual net price that a student who receives federal financial aid pays to cover expenses (e.g. tuition, living expenses, etc.) to attend the school's largest program. Net price is the program's cost of attendance minus any grants and scholarships received. For public schools, this is only the average cost for in-state students. Negative cost values indicate that the average grant/scholarship aid exceeded the cost of attendance.

Participants in the teacher education pathway will receive a teaching license as well as a master’s degree, and then will become an educator in one of the Metro Nashville Public School district’s high-need areas.
The grant will allow Lipscomb University to host a conference on the subject of best practices for providing support to students in the military.
The Turner Family Distinguished Visiting Professor of Public Policy and the Bill and Crissy Haslam Endowed Distinguished Visiting Professor of Faith and Reason were both established at the school this summer and are the result of gifts from family foundations.

The program is available to students who already have a bachelor degree or higher in any field and will allow students to complete a Bachelor of Science in Nursing degree in as little as 16 months thanks to its hybrid format.
Students were able to staff, photograph, and perform at the Dove Awards that aired worldwide on October 20.
