Bachelor in Biological and Physical Sciences (Bachelor's)

Brevard College has developed around a liberal arts education that connects academic study with practical experience. Faculty work one-on-one with students, supported by an 11:1 student-to-faculty ratio and an average class size of 15. Students can build career plans with individual guidance and pursue on-campus or off-campus field experiences. Undergraduate research, fine arts events, and hands-on learning are central parts of the academic experience.

The college is located in Brevard, in the mountains of Western North Carolina near Asheville. Campus life includes residence halls, dining, a concert hall, athletic fields, and events. First-year students generally live in Beam or Jones Hall, while transfer and upper-class students may live in Stanback Hall or The Villages, which offer suite, apartment, and town-home style arrangements. Brevard's location also provides access to the surrounding Land of Waterfalls and the town's downtown area.

International applicants submit a free application, an official high school transcript translated into English and evaluated by a transcript service, proof of English proficiency through TOEFL, IELTS, or Duolingo, and an interview. SAT or ACT scores are optional, although applicants who do not submit them must provide an English test score. Merit scholarships for international students range from $10,000 to $11,000 per year and are renewable for four years. After admission and payment of the enrollment fee, students provide a recent bank statement so Brevard can process the I-20 for an F-1 visa.

Students study a general blend of one or more biological and physical sciences. They may also focus on a specialization that draws from both areas.

This field is used for general study or for specializations that combine biological and physical sciences. The definition does not name specific careers or applications.

For international students, tuition is around the median for US programmes. The institution admits about 40% of applicants.
