Attend Orientation
All new students are required to attend an orientation prior to beginning classes. This orientation is intended to prepare the student for his or her tenure at Southern Bible. During the orientation, an entrance assessment will be administered for the purpose of ensuring proper program placement as well as to help evaluate the institute’s effectiveness in educating its students.
Note: The same assessment will be administered at the end of the student’s tenure prior to graduation in order to further measure increase in biblical knowledge as a result of completing an academic program.
