Admissions at Davis The primary goal of the Davis College admissions office is to identify and assist qualified students to pursue enrollment at Davis College. It is the intent of the admissions office to give clear and honest information regarding the educational programs of the school. An interview with the admissions personnel is not required, but it is recommended so that potential students can be advised on the spiritual and social aspects of Davis College along with future ministry options. The admissions office works with the financial aid office to assist prospective students in formulating a plan to meet the financial obligations of a college education. Veterans The New York State Division of Veteran’s Affairs, Bureau of Veteran’s Education approves Davis for the training of veterans. The director of financial aid is the certifying official for Davis College. Veterans must meet the General Requirements for admission to Davis College and follow the Application Procedure for Regular Admission outlined below.
GENERAL REQUIREMENTS Spiritual
It is the objective of Davis College to train students for leadership positions in various aspects of vocational and marketplace ministry; therefore, each applicant must give evidence of personal knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior. While it is not required, it is recommended that the applicant be a Christian for at least one year prior to enrolling. Candidates for admission must demonstrate a lifestyle consistent with biblical standards that marks itself by a daily walk with Christ, a consistent prayer life, and strong character traits. A life of discipline, evidence of emotional maturity, developed social skills that allow for friendships, Christian identity, and positive influence with peers are also strongly weighed in the evaluation process. Abstinence from the use of tobacco, alcohol, illegal drugs, and sexual promiscuity for at least one year prior to enrollment is preferred. The candidate must verify active participation in regular worship attendance and church ministry opportunities at an evangelical Protestant church. A positive recommendation from the pastoral leadership of the applicant’s church is required. This recommendation will be evaluated to verify the spiritual qualifications of prospective students. Academic Davis College requires applicants to have a high school diploma with a minimum high school cumulative grade point average of 2.00 (on a 4.00 scale) or 80 (on a 0–100 scale). High school equivalency exam results will be recognized in lieu of a high school diploma. Homeschooled applicants must demonstrate that they have completed a program in compliance with their states’ requirements for secondary education. A certificate, diploma, or degree from Davis College cannot be awarded without the student receiving a high school diploma or GED, or in the case of international students, the equivalent of a high school diploma. An ACT or SAT Test Score report is required for scholarship consideration. Students who wish to be considered for academic scholarships should submit their scores to the admissions office.
