CCBC for International Students
CCBC Welcomes Students from Around the World
At Calvary Chapel Bible College, we believe God’s Word has the power to transform lives—no matter where you live.
International students bring unique perspectives, gifts, and callings to our community, and we are committed to equipping you to grow in your faith, deepen your understanding of Scripture, and serve Christ effectively in your home country and beyond.
While we are currently unable to offer on-campus enrollment for international (non-US citizens) students, you can begin your studies online, connect with a global community of believers, and prepare for future on-campus opportunities. CCBC provides a strong biblical foundation, personalized instruction, and a supportive community that transcends borders.
Important Update for International Applicants Wanting to Attend our Florida Campus
CCBC is currently awaiting reauthorization from SEVIS (the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System). Until that approval is complete, we are unable to accept international students for on-campus programs.
In the meantime, international students are encouraged to:
Begin their studies through CCBC Online, and if they desire to study on campus in Florida, they can transition to on-campus study once SEVIS approval is reinstated (pending reauthorization).
We appreciate your patience and look forward to welcoming students from around the world again soon.
Requirements for All International Applicants
Along with our usual application requirements, international students have a few additional requirements.
1) Submit application
2) Official Transcripts
If the international student’s education was completed outside of the United States, we require an international transcript evaluation as part of the admissions process. International students need to have official transcripts evaluated by a service such as World Education Services (WES).
This evaluation helps us verify readiness for college-level coursework and determine whether any prior college credits may be transferable to CCBC.
We typically recommend using World Education Services (WES), though you may use another NACES-approved evaluation service if you prefer.
3) Pastoral Reference
4) TOEFUL Exam Results
Applicants must demonstrate the ability to understand and speak English.
