ADMISSION

 

Procedure for Application

 
  1. Write to the College to request for the application form, or click to download the application form. (The application form is translated into the following languages—Chinese, Indonesian, Khmer, Korean, Myanmese, Kiswahili, Tagalog, Tamil, Thai, and Vietnamese—and available upon request.)
 
 
  2. Complete the application form (in English), and submit it with the application fee ($50, non-refundable) plus the following documents:
 
 
    a. Official certificates and transcripts from educational institutions attended from secondary or high school upwards. International applicants are to ensure that all foreign language certificates and transcripts are translated into English, and certified true by a notary public.
 
 
    b. Handwritten testimony of salvation experience.
 
 
    c. Handwritten testimony of call to full-time Christian service, or reason for wanting to study at FEBC.
 
 
    d. Letters of Recommendation from two referees who may be pastors, elders, deacons, or men of good standing in the church. Members of an applicant’s family, and students of FEBC are not acceptable as referees.
 
 
    e. Proof of financial support from a sponsoring church (letter of sponsorship) or individual (bank statement).
 
 
    f. Official TOEFL result slip (or educational documents) showing proficiency in the English language (for international applicants whose native language is other than English). FEBC requires international students without proof of English proficiency to take a mandatory English Proficiency Test on the day of matriculation.

  3. Applications must reach the admissions office by January 1 for admission in the July semester, and by July 1 for the January semester.  
 
 

International Students

 
  1. International students are encouraged to apply to the College. Applicants must submit their application forms and all required documents.
 
 
  2. The College shall process the application once it is received. It takes about two weeks to process the application.
 
 
  3. If the application is successful, the College will send to the prospective student:
 
 
    a. a letter of offer.
 
 
    b. student pass application forms (which are downloadable from www.ica.gov.sg). The applicant is to submit the following forms and documents to the College:

ii.     Two recent passport-size photographs.

iii.    Passport pages showing full particulars including passport expiry date (photocopy).

v.     Marriage certificate if the student is married (notarised, and translated if not in English).

vi.    Educational certificates and transcripts (notarised, and translated if not in English).

  4. The student pass application forms must be returned duly completed and signed. Incomplete forms or documents will NOT be accepted for processing. Student pass applicants are hereby warned that it is an offence under the Immigration Act to make any false statement, representation or declaration in connection with their student pass application.
 
 
  5. The College will then proceed to obtain the STFI for tuition-paying students, or sign the Non-SPS “Declaration & Undertaking” for FEBC scholarship students.
 
 
  6. Once the STFI is secured or the Non-SPS “Declaration & Undertaking” is signed, the College will submit the completed student pass application and documents to the ICA on behalf of the prospective student. It takes the ICA about 4 weeks to process the application.
 
 
  7. Once the student pass is approved, the new student is required to report to the College within seven days if possible, or three days before the course commences at the latest.
 
 
  8. Important: The new student is required to bring with him all original documents to be presented to the ICA for verification.
