If you have questions it is better to email me at cheryl.golden@arkansasbaptist.edu
All students that will be completing your studies in December must pay the $125.00 gradution fee to the business office and take your paid in full receipt to the Registrar before your degrees are ordered. If you fail to pay your fees your transcript will not reflect that you have completed classes/graduated until this transaction has ocured. What does this mean to you as a job seeker: as you apply for jobs if your future employer ask for your transcript to verify that you have completed school you will not be able to provide the proof needed to secure that job.
