    I have been a student with College of the Open Bible for several years and am enrolled in their PhD program. I had paid an additional fee of about $400.00 to have my past academic submissions reviewed to see if I qualified to receive my Doctorate in advance while still completing the required coursework. I was approved, and continued my studies, but told Dr. Arthur B******* that I wanted to wait before requesting my Doctorate. Just recently, I decided to proceed with this and reached out to the college to inform them that I wanted to do this. I left a phone message, and never received a return call. I eventually was able to reach Dr. B******* on Monday, February 26. He informed me he was in the middle of a personal matter and asked if I could call back on Thursday, February 29, to which I agreed. I attempted to call the college on the specified date and got a recorded message. I decided to hang up. Since that time, I have attempted to contact the school via phone on several occasions, leaving two voice mails and one Email I sent on March 12. It really would be nice to receive some sort of communication back. I have had excellent communication up to this point, and am concerned that the money - and time I have spent in this endeavor has been in vain. I would like to see this issue resolved by receiving my Doctorate.

    ****** ****** The College of the Open Bible, was the answer to my prayer, I reviewed a number of Christian College's. I knew this was the College for me when Dr. Arthur B******* answered the phone with such excitement in his voice. He was ready to explain everything that I needed to know about the College, then he said God bless you ******. Those words helped me to start this incredible journey with this College. A journey that I would have never imagined that would open up my mind and my heart to the word of God. This College is not only affordable but the schedule will be set by you and your hours and days and times that you can study. Lewis S***** ******, D.D. and his study on Grace, and G. C******* ******, D. D. The teaching of Christ is only a few of the amazing classes that you will have. Each class will build and prepare you for the next class, and the word of God will become clear and clearer. The only book that you will have will be the word of God, (The Bible).
