Admissions



Welcome to the College of Biblical Studies! Thank you for your interest in becoming a CBS student.


CBS grants admission to Christians who complete the application process, have at least a high school diploma or equivalent, are generally 18 years of age or older; and have the ability, in the judgment of the College, to benefit from the educational programs pursued. Christian applicants who do not meet these criteria may be admitted under special circumstances and/or individual review. CBS reserves the right, at its discretion, to deny admission to any applicant. For detailed information including transferring credits, subject exams and placement testing, please read Admissions.
