Grading System
MBISS uses a number-letter system of grading with number grades assigned to examinations
and homework and letter grades assigned to completed courses. Letter grades are converted to quality points for the purpose
of computing the grade point average (GPA) for the semester and the cumulative (GPA) for more than one semester. GPA ranges
from 4.0 for an (A) to ) for an (F) as detailed below.
A 4.0
95-100
B 3.0
85-94
C 2.0
75-84
D 1.0
70-74
F 0.0
Below 70
Your grade will be comprised as follows:
Test and Homework = 33 1/3%
Attendance = 33 1/3%
Chapel = 33 1/3%
Total = 100%
Examinations
All students must take exams. The number of exams required for your specific course vary. Your
instructor will provide you with the necessary information regarding the required examination. Your test may consist of questions
and essays.
You must receive passing grade on each exam. If not, the student must retake the exam. Any
student retaking an exam, the required fee is $10.00. Preparation for the exam should not be more than 7 days after the failure
of the first exam. The fee for a review is $10.00. The maximum grade for any retake exam is 90%.
If a student is absent on the day of a scheduled exam, there is an additional cost for taking a
make-up test. The only exception would be if the student presents acceptable documentation for his / her absence. The student
must pay a $15.00 fee for the review session and $10.00 for the exam. The maximum grade for a make-up exam will not exceed
90%.

Accreditation
After satisfactory completion of a four year curriculum,
students are eligible to receive a Bachelor of Theology (Th.B.) or a Bachelor of Religous Education (B.R.E.) from Anchor Theological Seminary and Bible Institute which is accredited by the Accrediting Commission
International for Schools, Colleges & Theological Seminaries, and the American Accrediting Associations for Theological
Institutions. Students that are eligible must complete a written thesis on a subject matter assigned by the faculty. Students
who desire can also acheive a Masters or Doctors degree with additional studies here at MBISS.
Attendence and Chapel Assignments
It is extremely important that you attend all the classes for which you have registered in the
time alloted if you plan to complete the course. We suggest that you mark off that particular period in you calendar and permit
nothing to come between you and your class time. Your instructor will not permit you to take an exam unless you have attended
the required number of classes. You are permitted to miss two classes per semester. Students who miss more
than two classes are required to attend continuity classes before being allowed to take the respective exam.
Chapel Assignments
Students are scheduled to speak in chapel every month and are frequently encouraged to participate
through song: Scripture readings and prayer etc... A student is never allowed to ignore an assignment. All students are required
to attend and participate in chapel service as assigned by the instructors.
If you do not fulfill your assignments when called upon to do so, your name will be placed on the
BUNKERS LIST! Your name will be removed from this list after you perform two consecutive
speaking assignments. Chapel is not an option, it is mandatory! Students must attend chapel to receive a passing grade.
Note: we encourage you to take your chapel assignment very seriously; we are training to become
exemplary servants of God.
