Program Student Registration
Requirements:
All program students must take REL 102 and

Registration Requirements" in the Academics
section above).
In addition, as part of our desire to see students
succeed academically, first-year students are
also required to take CCL 101: Introduction to
Christian College Life. This one credit course
is graded on a pass/fail basis (a "CR" - credit,
or "NC" - no credit is assigned).
Career and Professional Paths:
Graduates of this program will have the foundation to make a positive contribution to society as well as develop the practical and theoretical skills to succeed in a variety of careers. Graduates may go on to professional or after-degree programs in a number of disciplines. The four-year Bachelor of Arts degree provides the broad exposure to Arts and Sciences that many seminaries look for in their students.
