Associate of  Biblical Studies & Ministry

Course Requirements

Tuition: $1,180 + $50 non-refundable application fee
Total Course Credits: 60 

Enrollment is open to individuals without any prior degrees or certificates.

However, if you have earned an MTI certificate, you may transfer up to two certificates

Fast Track Options (choose one): 

  • 5+ years of experience without MTI certificates 

  • May transfer up to 50% of the required credits from previous coursework

  • Previously earned MTI Certificates (must already be completed at time of admissions) 

    • For ex. we have equated an MTI to be equivalent to 21 credit hours. So you would only have 39 credits remaining which is equivalent to 13 courses remaining. You can transfer a max of 2 MTI for the associates track.
