Admission Requirements
Degree-Seeking Students:
New freshman (never attended college): An official high school transcript confirming high school graduation date. Applicants who have not graduated from high school, but have received an equivalency diploma may submit an official transcript of GED scores in lieu of a high school transcript. SAT/ACT test scores are not required as a part of the admission requirements (they are optional).
Transfer Student: Official transcripts from each college previously attended. Transfer students with less than 32 hours of completed college coursework will also be expected to submit an official high school transcript confirming graduation date, or an official transcript of GED scores.
Non-Degree-Seeking Students:
Although not required, an official high school or college transcript is strongly recommended. Should the student later choose to pursue a degree, transcript requirements must be met as listed above.
Conditional Admission:
Conditional Admission limits a student to enrolling in a maximum of 12 semester hours in any given semester. It requires that the student earn a cumulative GPA of at least 2.00 in his first 12 hours of study at LBC. Students who satisfy this requirement will be granted Good Standing. Students who fail to meet this standard will be placed on Academic Suspension for one semester. Students who have completed the admission process and fit one of the following descriptions will be admitted on Conditional Admission:
Freshman who have a cumulative high school GPA of less than 2.00 or who did not graduate from high school, but earned an equivalency diploma (GED).
Transfer students who have a cumulative college GPA of less than 2.00 or who completed their most recent collegiate term on Academic Warning, Probation, or Suspension.
Home school students who have not completed an accredited home school curriculum. Exceptions may be made by Academic Committee.
Transfer Policy
Academic credit earned at an institution accredited or holding candidate status by one of the six regional accrediting associations, ABHE, ACICS, or TRACS in the United States, or by a provincial university in Canada, may be fully accepted. Transfer credit will be applied to degree requirements at the discretion of the Registrar.
Credit earned at colleges and universities that are not accredited may be accepted by Louisville Bible College on a course-by-course basis under the following provisions:
- If the College is known to Louisville Bible College as offering comparable college-level courses, which are taught by qualified faculty.
- If the College is authorized to grant degrees by the state where it is located or if it is listed in the Directory of Post Secondary Education or in the Higher Education Directory, credits may be accepted.
- Credits accepted from non-accredited colleges will be officially accepted only after the student has successfully completed twelve (12) semester hours at Louisville Bible College and earned a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.00.
Note: Grades for transfer credit are not considered a part of the student’s cumulative GPA.
