FALL 2021 STUDENT INFORMATION

Arkansas Baptist College recognizes the difficulties that our students and their families have experienced during this period of coping with the Covid-19 Pandemic.

It’s that time of year again! The new academic year begins on August 2nd. There are still spots available for Pell-eligible students to be among the first 500 to enroll and receive free fall tuition. 
 
The registration process will begin in the Academic Support Center where students will obtain a registration checklist. Academic advising during the weekends will take place in the Academic Support Center as well. 
 
All students seeking to enroll must provide proof of COVID vaccination or negative COVID test results indicating the test was administered within the last 72 hours.   Parents or visitors with students who want to enter residential housing must also adhere to this mandate. COVID testing is available on campus in the Derek Olivier building should individuals need to test.  
 
As a campus, please remind everyone and adhere to the 3 Ws:
 
Wear Your Face Mask
Watch Your Distance (minimum 3 ft)
Wash Your Hands (or use sanitizer)
 

We ask each student to contact their Department Chair or Academic Advisor to confirm their schedule of classes .  If any changes are needed, students should contact their academic advisors to discuss changes to their schedules. This is just one of the college’s efforts among several to provide meaningful assistance to our students and their families during these most difficult times.
