To the right is a list of those courses that a student must complete for a Certificate in New Testament Studies.

The Certificate in New Testament Studies program of study provides a comprehensive overview of the New Testament, designed to be completed online in one or two years, preparing men and women for Christian leadership and service.

On successful completion of this program, students:

• Can demonstrate the veracity and reliability of the Bible;

• Understand and can explain the New Testament and its implication and application;

• Demonstrate and exemplify Christian servant-leadership and values; and

• Know and demonstrate understanding of biblical doctrines.

Upon entering the Certificate in New Testament Program a student is assigned an adviser who will be available for program advisement and career information. An adviser helps a student create a workable plan to meet his or her educational objectives within a reasonable time period.

This certificate normally requires one academic year (two semesters) to complete on a part-time basis (see Suggested Schedule). Those who plan to complete the certificate over two or more years can take one or two courses a semester. These courses are not available in the summer session.

For the conferring of the certificate students should apply for graduation in the semester they plan to graduate. For graduation, a student must have a minimum overall GPA of 2.0 in the 18 semester hours applicable to the certificate. Students may obtain an Application for Graduation from the Registrar. This application must be filed with the Registrar by midterm for graduation that semester.
