As a small, relational school Alberta Bible College’s student population tends to be comprised of more mature student with jobs and families joining us in our PACE program in order to learn at a pace that matches the speed of their lives. Our students are often not necessarily looking to be employed in ministerial work directly, and it is instead our goal to prepare them for “whatever social and cultural context God leads them locally and globally.” (-ABC’s Mission statement)

 

Notes

  1. Retention Rate (first-time traditional undergraduate students) = the number of returning traditional students from the previous fall’s incoming cohort of students divided by the total number of potential returning traditional undergraduate students from the previous fall’s incoming students, expressed as a percent.
  2. Retention Rate (non-traditional students) = the number of returning non-traditional students from the previous fall’s incoming cohort of students divided by the total number of potential returning non-traditional undergraduate students from the previous fall’s incoming students, expressed as a percent.
  3. A traditional student is a student who is full-time (12 credit hours or more/semester for ABHE purposes), enrolled in a degree, diploma or certificate program of study, and who is taking 50% or more of their courses on campus.
  4. Annualized Retention Rate = the percentate of new undergraduate students to the institution from 2 years ago who enrolled in any enrollment period in the last academic year
