Program Information
General Description
Calvary Bible College has entered into a partnership with the Consortium of Online Christian Colleges to offer students the opportunity to take a variety of college courses online. These courses are offered for college credit and may be used to meet traditional or non-traditional program requirements. Students may take an online course to add to their current semester load or over the summer to lighten their fall or spring semester load.
Ability Assessment
To help determine your ability to successfully complete an online course, we recommend you complete the Online Ability Assessment. To access the assessment, click here.

Current students should take the Ability Assessment before enrolling in an online course. After carefully reading the remaining steps, steps two through six, current students may then proceed to the Non-Traditional Studies Office (or call 816-322-0110, x. 1307) to enroll in an Online course.
Step Two: For Financial Aid questions or to set up a payment schedule, call 816.322.0110, or for additional information. Tuition for online courses is the same as for any college course. There is a technology fee of $125 per course in addition to tuition.

Step Four: Textbooks may be purchased from any source the student desires. Students must purchase their textbooks and course materials prior to their logon date.

Step Six: Be sure to logon on the correct date to begin your online learning experience.
