Programs of Study

Certificate of Completion

This program was designed for the student who does not hold a high school diploma, or who has learning or language difficulties which prevent him or her from succeeding at college level work. The student takes all of the required courses, but registers for them on a Pass/Fail basis. The student must receive a grade of “P” in a total of 80 credit units. An Education Agreement is available to those students without their high school diploma or GED who wish to earn an Associate or Bachelor Degree. This agreement must be signed by the student at enrollment and simply states that the student agrees to earn their GED within one year of enrolling in their first semester. If interested, please notify the registrar.

This program is for the student who has successfully completed high school or a GED program or its equivalent, but does not have the minimum transferable units required for the Bachelor’s Degree program. The student must take all of the required courses and pass them with a grade of C- or better. A grade point average of 2.0 must be maintained.

Bachelor in Biblical Studies

The Bachelor of Biblical Studies is a four year program consisting of 80 semester units of Biblical Studies, combined with 60 semester units of general education.

Auditing Classes
