Do I have to send all the application information at one time (references, physical exam form, photos, etc.)?
No, they can arrive separately, but we do need all the forms before we can accept a student.
What if I have debt?
It is the policy of New Tribes Mission that an applicant be debt free prior to entering the training. At the Bible school level we are willing to accept an individual with a debt on the condition that the entire semester is paid up front.
We would require the same for each subsequent semester as well, provided the debt still remained. Please contact an Admissions Counselor with questions about your particular situation.
How many campuses does NTBI have?
Two. There's one in Jackson, Michigan, and another in Waukesha, Wisconsin.
Are the campuses the same? How do I know which one to go to?
The two campus locations are very similar. You'll get solid Bible teaching at either location. Schedule a campus visit to see one for yourself and find out for more. Contact the admissions office:

How does New Tribes Bible Institute relate to New Tribes Mission?
NTBI is the first step in NTM's overall training program. As a mission we feel it is vital to send out missionaries who are adequately prepared for the task set before them.
The New Tribes Mission training program currently consists of two phases, the first being NTBI. We believe that it is critical to establish believers in the fundamental truths of the Bible. Not only as it pertains to their ministries as they communicate and teach but also in their own relationship with God.
What is the Missionary Training Center?
The Missionary Training Center is a two-year program that constitutes the second phase of New Tribes Mission's training program. At the center, you'll learn practical skills vital to cross-cultural church-planting.
Why are the costs so low?
All of the staff at NTBI, from the physical plant department to the teaching staff, are missionaries with NTM. That means that they are not paid a salary, but rather are supported by individuals and churches. In this way, we are able to pass savings onto students as their costs go toward their room, board and general upkeep of the facilities.
