Application information
First-year
Alaska Bible College welcomes first-year students who demonstrate Christian faith and a commitment to biblical studies. To apply, submit a completed application, official high school transcripts, and a pastoral or Christian leader reference. We offer rolling admissions, allowing students to apply throughout the year, though early application is encouraged for optimal housing and financial aid consideration. New students typically begin in the fall semester, with orientation held before classes start. All applicants must complete a personal faith statement describing their relationship with Christ and calling to ministry or Christian service.
Transfer
Alaska Bible College welcomes transfer students from accredited institutions. To apply, submit a completed application, official transcripts from all previously attended colleges, and a pastoral or Christian leader reference. High school transcripts are required if you've completed fewer than 24 college credits. We offer rolling admissions year-round, though early application is encouraged for housing and financial aid purposes. Credits are evaluated individually for transfer eligibility. All applicants must complete a personal faith statement describing their relationship with Christ and ministry calling.

Alaska Bible College is committed to making biblical education accessible and affordable. Through our Christian Ministry Training Match Grant, local churches can contribute toward a student's education, and ABC will match their gift. Our Church Match Grant allows Alaska churches to give up to $500 per student, which the college matches dollar-for-dollar. These programs enable both sending and local churches to invest in students' ministry preparation. All students are encouraged to complete the FAFSA to determine eligibility for federal grants and loans, and Alaska residents may qualify for additional state programs.
