West Coast Baptist College is an Independent Fundamental Baptist Bible college in Lancaster, California, offering graduate and undergraduate degrees in Pastoral studies, evangelism, missions, church ministries, music, Christian education, youth ministry, and secretarial studies. West Coast opened in 1995, and now has about 925 students. West Coast is an Independent Fundamental Baptist college, and is associated with the Christian fundamentalist movement. It is King James Only, believing that the Textus Receptus is providentially preserved by God, and the only translation acceptable for the faculty and students is the King James Bible. It also believes in the premillennial rapture of the Church, a literal seven years Tribulation, and a Millennial reign of Christ. Before a male student is able to graduate from West Coast Baptist College, he is to undergo a written and oral examination of his beliefs. Two members of the Bible department question a graduating senior. The testing is known to last anywhere from 2–3 hours. Failing to pass oral examinations is a failure to graduate.
