Attendance
You are expected to attend all classes in which you are enrolled. Because unforeseen circumstances do arise, and illness would prevent class attendance, the policy allows for up to two absences per credit hour in any course. Credit for the course may be lost due to excessive absences. The Dean of Education will make a determination on a case-by-case basis.
Academic Review
Academic progress is reviewed periodically. If your GPA drops below 2.00, you may be placed on academic probation. If sufficient improvement is not seen, you may be asked to step out of school. After one year you may reapply.
Academic Records
You may inquire at any time about your academic progress in a course. You will be given a summary of grades at the end of each semester. Copies of all academic records are kept on file. A student transcript will be sent upon request at the cost of $5 per transcript.
Transfer Credits
Transfer credits may be given for courses taken at other schools if the course content is equal to what is offered at NTBI. All Bible and missions courses will be considered for transfer. Also, many Christian colleges and universities accept NTBI credits. It is at the discretion of each individual school as to which and how many NTBI credits would be transferable.

Academic Honors
To be placed on the Dean's List at graduation, students must have completed a minimum of 64 credits with a minimum GPA of 3.60.
Student conduct
NTBI's governing board reserves the right to ask any student to leave the school who disqualifies himself/herself through conduct that is not in keeping with Christ-like character. Some examples are:
- any form of sexual immorality
- the possession and/or use or sale of illegal drugs
- a lack of discipline in academic or personal life
After a minimum of one year's absence following dismissal, a student will be allowed to reapply to NTBI. A positive pastoral recommendation and NTBI governing board approval are needed in order for a student to re-enroll.
