All materials and information provided to the college by the applicant become the property of the
college. Records from other agencies or institutions are not released by BHCLR. Any misrepresentation,
falsification or omission of information may result in denial of entry or dismissal from the college.

In the case of denial of entry or administrative dismissal, future applications to any program of study
may not be considered for a designated period of time decided by administration at the time of denial of
entry or administrative dismissal.

Application Requirements
An applicant file is established when Baptist Health College Little Rock receives an application to a
program of study, and the remaining materials are filed therein when received. This process is followed
until all required materials are received; the applicant file is then considered complete. The completed
applicant file is forwarded to the Registrar and Selection Committee for consideration. Satisfactory
completion of the application requirements is required before applicant file is reviewed by the Selection
Committee. Completion of the application requirements does not guarantee selection/admission into the
program of study.

1. Submit completed Application Form.

2. Submit one (1) official transcript from all educational institutions (colleges, universities,
vocational schools, private schools, military schools, private career schools, etc.) attended; and
either an official high school transcript or an official General Education Diploma (GED)
transcript with scores.

If the validity of an applicant’s high school education is in question, the applicant’s transcripts
will be forwarded to the Registrar. The Registrar will evaluate the validity of the institution
granting the high school diploma to determine if the diploma is acceptable. If the diploma is not
accepted, the institution will be added to the list of institutions not recognized by Baptist Health
College Little Rock and all admissions staff will be notified.

Official transcripts are defined as those that are: a) mailed directly to BHCLR by the educational
institution, b) are delivered to the school in a sealed envelope signed by the Registrar, or c) are
sent electronically from the institution to the Registrar using an approved electronic transcription
service. Examples are SPEEDE and eScrip-Safe. It is the student’s responsibility to obtain and
ensure submission of transcripts.

3. If the applicant is still enrolled in high school, a partial transcript including first semester of the
senior year must be submitted. Upon completion of high school, an official transcript showing
graduation date must be submitted to the college prior to enrollment.

4. Submit completed Demographic Data Form.

5. Submit required entrance exams. Please see “Applicant Testing” for detailed information.

6. An Arkansas Criminal Background Check may be required by the Selection Committee. The cost
of the report is the responsibility of the applicant.
