Admissions Outreach

CBC is reaching out to new populations, and we need your help! We are making an intentional effort to be more involved with and supportive of the home educators’ movement in Arkansas and surrounding states. If you are involved in a home-schooling association or group and would like to discuss ways CBC can be involved with concurrent credit, meeting spaces or other needs we can support you with, we would love to speak with you.

CBC is implementing a robust new U.S. Territories Stipend beginning Fall 2023 to encourage students from U.S. Territories to consider coming to the United States for a Christian education. If you would like more information about either of these new programs, please reach out to the Vice-President for Enrollment Management at bwalthall@cbc.edu or call (501) 205-8815.
