We have secured the necessary accreditation approvals to offer the following degrees and certificates 100% online:
· Online Master of Theological Studies (A 49 hour two year master’s program in the biblical and theological foundations for Christian life and ministry. All credits earned may transfer into the MDiv, if desired. See the Seminary Catalog. )
· Online Diploma in Theology (A 79 hour three year program of study designed for those called to ministry later in life without having a completed undergraduate degree. While the DTh is not an accredited master’s program, the courses required are identical to the MTS/MDiv courses and courses taken for credit maybe applied to a master’s degree upon completion of an accredited undergraduate degree.)
