I have placed this category in Category:Seminaries and theological colleges because the vast majority of Bible colleges clearly identify themselves as existing to prepare students to become members of the clergy or enter other religious careers.

For example, here are some excerpts from bible college websites:

Founded in 1976, Northland Baptist Bible College exists to train the pastors, missionaries, teachers, and godly laymen of tomorrow.

Mission Statement of Peace River Bible Institute: "To conduct a Bible College, the training of students in a thorough knowledge of the Word of God, Holy Scriptures, and the training of students to become ministers, whether at home or abroad."

The mission of Elim Bible Institute is to glorify God and His Son, Jesus Christ, by assisting the Church to fulfill the mandate of the Great Commission: to preach the Gospel and make disciples of all nations. To this end, we are committed to the task of preparing Christian workers and servant-leaders for revival ministry worldwide, who manifest the character of Christ and who minister in the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit.

Appalachian Bible College, the operational arm of an independent mission agency, serves the fundamentalist Christian community in the strengthening of local churches. Educational programs of the College promote the development of responsible Christian character and maturity, and prepare graduates for vocational and volunteer church-related service.

Since 1967 Nazarene Bible College has fulfilled its mission of preparing men and women for ministry.
