Finances

Clear Creek Baptist Bible College is here to help you succeed by getting your mind off of the problems of money and on to the theological training you need.

Costs to Student:

• $375 per semester
• Textbooks

Scholarship Offer:

• CCBBC will scholarship the cost of tuition of certificate program courses

Withdrawals:

• Students who withdraw from the program will be responsible to cover the cost of financial aid that was applied to their account for tuition. This can be appealed to the scholarship committee to review the circumstance of the withdrawal.

Failures:

• Students who must retake a course they have failed will be responsible for the full tuition cost.

Financial Aid Policies:

Clear Creek Baptist Bible College created the Bi-Vocational Certificate program with the goal of investing in the theological education and equipping for Christian service those who are dually employed. Through this program, students can grow in their knowledge of the Lord while also getting a taste for theological education and preparation.

Through internal scholarships, students will only have to pay $375 for tuition and fees plus the cost of textbooks each semester. However, the student must stay continuously enrolled to maintain the scholarship. If a student were to cease their enrollment in the program, then they would lose the beneficial, financial aid package in their next enrollment and for continuous enrollment.

If a student fails a class, they will be required to pay standard tuition for the re-take of said course. However, financial aid will be available for the other classes in which the student is enrolled.

If a student falls below the level of Satisfactory Academic Progress, they will lose the scholarship provided for them by the college until they return to their appropriate minimum scholastic attainment.

If a student withdraws from a course that was previously failed and is being retaken, they will be responsible to pay for the portion of the course at the time of their withdrawal based upon financial aid calculations.

Appeals Process:

• A student may appeal the loss of Financial Aid due to “illness, injury, death of a relative, or other special circumstance”. These are examples and not the only reasons, which could be considered. Although, taking too many courses or failure to study or attend class is not acceptable. It is the students’ responsibility to request in writing that their case be taken into consideration. Once the written appeal has been received the student will be notified of the committee decision by mail within two weeks from receipt of the appeal.
