Admission Procedures The School of Wisdom and Higher Learning Bible Institute has an "open admissions" policy meaning that we will receive applications for enrollment from prospective Students at any time during the calendar year, though the student may not be able to gain admittance to the classroom until a new semester begins.

Have all forms completed and returned to the Registrar's office with the required recent photo before the first day of class. New students are required to attend the New Student Orientation held at the beginning of each semester. Returning students are not required to attend orientation.

Students will take the test again before they receive their Basic Certificate. The results of this test will be used to assist the teaching staff in providing the material to help you build a strong Bible Knowledge foundation. Honor Code In signing the Code of Honor, the student recognizes that The School of Wisdom and Higher Learning Bible Institute is committed to being Christ-centered ministry and that it offers a life-style of commitment to Jesus Christ. It is, therefore, each student's commitment to be a person of integrity in their attitude and respect for what The School of Wisdom and Higher Learning Bible Institute stands for. Processing and Notification It is the applicant's responsibility to see that all of the required information is available to the School of Wisdom and Higher Learning Bible Institute for an admission decision. The Academic Dean will review the applicant's records when all information is complete. An admission decision will be communicated to the applicant as soon as possible. Applicants should have all admission information completed and turned into the office by orientation of the semester that enrollment is desired. Please check the catalog calendar for orientation dates. If sufficient information is not available to the school to make an admission decision within a reasonable time before the beginning of the desired semester, the applicant's date of admission will be moved forward to the next semester. Selection of Area of Study Every student is encouraged to study the goals and requirements for the areas of study offered, and to select one consistent with his/her interests and experiences. Descriptions of these are given at the back of the catalog. The Rush To Get A Diploma Students are encouraged not to be unduly pressured to complete the diploma or certificate program by a certain time. Remember you can and will be ministering long before you get your diploma. Actually, it is best to pursue your training at a relaxed yet steady rate and accompany it with continuous ministry. Thus as your training moves toward culmination, you find yourself also in a growing and flourishing ministry. There is no need to RUSH TO GET A DIPLOMA. The "spirit of rush" is not the "Spirit of Christ".
