OUR IOWA CAMPUS
FGBC opened our Iowa campus in 2022 on the site of Pine Lake Camps/Free Grace United in Eldora. In the Fall of 2024, we moved to a more centrally-located campus in Des Moines: Eastview Community Center (4101 E 42nd St, Des Moines, IA 50317), which is also the current location of Free Grace United Des Moines.
Both first and second year programs will continue to be available in Iowa with our full-time Iowa teaching team. Year three is only available via Distance Learning for the 2024-25 school year.
In order to comply with educational program standards in the state of Iowa, FGBC does not offer an Associates Degree for the second year program; rather, students completing the second year coursework will be granted an Advanced Diploma in Christian Leadership and Ministry.
The state of Iowa requires FGBC to provide students with the following information:
NON-ACCREDITATION
Free Grace Bible College is not accredited by a US Department of Education-recognized accrediting agency. Credits earned at Free Grace Bible College might not transfer to accredited schools, however, we are pleased to announce a partnership with Bethel University in St. Paul, MN, to enable students to transfer certain credits toward a degree-seeking program at Bethel. Details coming soon.
