Program details
Overview
Bachelor of Arts in Marketplace is a three-year, primarily on-campus degree from Steinbach Bible College that pairs the college's biblical-studies core with a vocational credential completed elsewhere. In the first two years, students take biblical and theological studies, arts-and-sciences courses, and professional-studies classes alongside a service-learning requirement. In the third year, students complete a marketplace practicum and pursue their vocational specialization at a partner institution, such as Red River College or Robertson College, working toward a credential in a field like business, healthcare, education, or technology. The structure allows a portion of coursework to be completed online in addition to on-campus study. The program suits students who want to combine a career-oriented credential with a biblical foundation, preparing them for secular employment shaped by Christian formation, or for bi-vocational ministry roles that combine a marketplace career with church or community service.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: The programme page states no admission requirements of its own and points applicants to Steinbach Bible College's general Admission Standards & Processes. Per that page, the baseline requirement is a Manitoba Senior High School Diploma or equivalent; mature students without a completed diploma may be considered individually, sometimes subject to preliminary entrance tests, and international applicants submit official transcripts from all prior education. Applicants must be professing Christians willing to grow in discipleship in line with SBC's mission, and must commit to the college's Community Covenant and Guidelines. The application package includes a personal information form, official transcripts, a $50 CAD fee (domestic/online) or $500 CAD (international), a faith-story narrative, a financial plan, a photo, medical information (with parental signature if under 18), and two references from a church leader, educator, or employer. Applicants whose first language is not English must demonstrate English competency as part of the process, though the college does not publish specific test-score thresholds.
Application Details
Start Date:September
Application Deadline:Steinbach Bible College publishes no fixed application deadline for Fall entry for either domestic or international applicants, and its admissions page describes only the online application process and fees ($50 CAD domestic, $500 CAD international) rather than a closing date, consistent with rolling admission for the 2026-27 cycle. International applicants are advised to submit all paperwork, including their study-permit application, at least six months before their intended entrance term and to apply for a study permit within 60 days of receiving a Provincial Attestation Letter; full tuition payment and an accepted study permit are due 30 days before the start date, meaning 1 August for a September start. SBC does not use a provincial application service. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
