Union Bible College

What is the accreditation of Union Bible College?

The Association for Biblical Higher Education, or ABHE, is identified as Union Bible College's institutional accreditor. Institutional accreditation concerns the college as a whole; it is different from a separate professional accreditation that might apply to a particular program.

Accreditation can affect eligibility for certain forms of financial aid, but students should confirm the college's current status and their specific aid eligibility before enrolling. It also does not guarantee that another college will accept transfer credits or that a graduate will qualify for a professional license. Education students, in particular, should check the requirements of the state where they hope to work.

What are the admission requirements at Union Bible College?

Union Bible College does not report an open-admission policy. Its 2024-25 admissions information identifies the secondary school record and recommendations as required, while high school GPA, class rank, and completion of a college-preparatory program are considered but not required.

SAT and ACT scores are neither required nor recommended under that reporting policy. TOEFL is listed as required, so applicants who need to demonstrate English proficiency should ask admissions which tests and score thresholds apply to their circumstances. Applicants should also confirm the current application form, transcript instructions, deadlines, and any requirements for their chosen program.

The reported first-year admissions figures show 119 offers of admission from 131 applicants, an acceptance rate of approximately 91%. That figure describes a past applicant group, not an assurance that any individual applicant will be admitted.

What are the application fees and waivers at Union Bible College?

Applicants should verify Union Bible College's current application charge before submitting a form. An application fee is a charge to review an application; it is distinct from tuition, an enrollment deposit, and other charges that may follow admission.

Students for whom the fee would be a hardship should ask admissions whether a waiver is available and how to request one before paying. Transfer and international applicants should also confirm whether their application procedures or charges differ from those for first-year applicants.

What types of ROTC programs are available at Union Bible College?

Students interested in ROTC should not assume that Union Bible College operates an Army, Air Force, or Navy ROTC unit on campus. They should ask whether a current cross-enrollment agreement would allow them to participate through another institution and whether its class and training schedule would work with their degree plan.

ROTC scholarships and participation have branch-specific eligibility rules. Commissioning generally entails a military service obligation, so applicants should review the relevant branch's terms before treating ROTC as a way to pay for college.

What are the requirements for transfer students at Union Bible College?

Transfer applicants should seek an individual review of both admission eligibility and prior coursework. Being admitted to Union Bible College does not, by itself, establish which credits will count toward a particular degree.

Before enrolling, request a written evaluation showing how previous courses satisfy major, general education, and elective requirements. Ask which official college transcripts are needed, whether high school records are also required, and how the college handles credits from different types of accredited institutions. Students with examination credit, prior learning, or ministry experience should ask how each form of learning is assessed; the college reports that it awards credit for life experience and accepts Advanced Placement credit.

What types of study abroad programs are available at Union Bible College?

Students interested in international study should ask Union Bible College which, if any, current overseas programs can earn credit toward their degree. Travel, mission service, and an approved academic study-abroad program are not necessarily interchangeable.

Before committing to a program, obtain written approval for the courses or experiences that would count, and clarify supervision, travel expenses, insurance, and financial-aid treatment. These questions are especially important if an opportunity is organized by a church or outside provider rather than by the college.
