They are great college for the Biblical worldview to take shape in hearts and lives. They want to equip you for the church, ministry. They have a focus of really exfoliating every part of mind towards servanthood.
I love Appalachian Bible College. It helps to prepare believers in the Lord to take what they know and put it into actions of service. I have grown so much, more than ever in my life, through the amount of responsibility I’ve had to take, but also how deeply helpful the classes and people have been. The Lord has been faithful by leading me to this school, and I trust that all other students, and staff/faculty feel the same.
I love it here. The students and faculty are so welcoming and kind, and everyone works really hard to help you fit in and succeed. I felt at home right away. The campus is beautiful and homey, and my dorm, Hoops Hall, is really nice. Every room in that dorm has its own AC and heat, two beds, two sinks and vanities, two closets, and two bookshelves. There is an abundance of storage. All the facilities here are really nice, it’s just a fun place.
The motto of the school is evident at this school. Every staff member is wholly focused on serving God and coming beside and ahead of the students in order to encourage them to do likewise. The campus is beautiful and everyone knows everyone (for those looking for a small college feel). This school is small, and it can be easy to get lost in the campus bubble. However, there is fostered an environment where every student is both an encouragement, through their changing actions, and an encourager, through their words to each other, even as they are always being encouraged to go outside themselves.
The campus is a fun, safe place with individuals who are willing to help and encourage new students who are just starting college. The one thing that I would like to see changed is the dorms need some updating they are a little old and weathered.
I love the college! It's small, so very family oriented but great atmosphere. They are very strict on rules so if this is not your thing better not come.
They don't care about the women at their college. They basically only cater to the pastors-in-training and the men. Women always come in second best. In the year I was at that school we did not have a single chapel geared towards women.
They expect way to much of their students. Get ready to be fined if you miss chapel or get a infraction if you miss church.
Oh and just a FYI if you're thinking about going, be sure to clean your room every day perfectly. Why? BECAUSE THEY GROUND YOU IF YOU DON"T. They literally grounded me for not constantly cleaning my room. ME a 18 year old adult paying to be there. It was outrageous.
I will also bring up the safety issue. The girls parking lot for DP is right by a major highway. And in this parking lot there are no camera's. This is extremely dangerous. My car was parked in this parking lot and they said there was nothing they could do. They even had the audacity to blame it on me saying that I had left my car unlocked when I had not.

Appalachian Bible College has a great biblical atmosphere. The teachers are very knowledgeable about the subjects that they teach. The students all respect and get along with each other.
Only a sociology course during winter break, but I learned a lot; it was excellent!
It was especially helpful that it was greatly discounted and allowed me to earn three credits in six weeks!

Appalachian Bible College is a solid, Christian school. It is a great place to get grounded in the Word of God. The staff and faculty are really amazing and helpful. It is a small school, so everyone can get to know you personally. There is a great family feel because their motto is. . .because life is for service.
I like the people. I enjoy the environment and the effort the professor and deans put into your life. I
Appalachian Bible College is a campus that upholds a solid education experience while submerging the student body in ministries throughout the town and on campus, as a means to grow each individual personally and spiritually.
I love attending Appalachian Bible College! The students and staff love getting to know new people and their current students! When I first went to Preview at ABC, the students and staff welcomed me in the moment I stepped foot on campus! The people there do not only care about how one is doing, but they also care about your spiritual walk with God. The ABC Campus tries to get everyone involved in different fundraisers and events! One of the fundraisers ABC had was having dinner at one of the staff's house. The staff really care about the students and they want to get to know them better. The staff, each year, are paired with different students to become their prayer partners. Appalachian Bible College equips their students to work in the ministry. Even though some students do not go into full time ministry, the classes prepares the students in any field.
I love that this school does not have a campus church, but instead encourages their students to be involved in the community of the Beckley area.
I love going to ABC. The atmosphere is wonderful. The students encourage one another to be in God's Word everyday. There are many nice things to go see around Beckley. The staff is very nice and encouraging. It's a good place to get to know God's Word better to be able to serve others when we graduate.
Professors are very educated. They are able to teach in a way that makes learning fun and keeps you interested.
It is a very good college. The faculty and staff are very friendly, helpful, and personal. The only thing that will stand in a person's way is the cost.
