Three credit hours are equivalent to 48 clock hours and 2½ credit hours are equivalent to 40 clock hours.

THIRD YEAR PROGRAM: As of the 2004-2005 school year, we have discontinued the third year program as such. The third year classes have been incorporated into the two-year program.

FIELD WORK: A practical part of our training is gained in campaigns conducted by our students under the direction of a representative from the school. In these campaigns, students are able to put into practice things learned in the classroom. Valuable experience is gained in mission work, personal work, and preaching. Qualified participating students in these campaigns may receive 3 hours credit. Campaigns have been held in Florida and in foreign countries.

GUIDED RESEARCH: Qualifying students may at the discretion of the Director do guided research projects and receive up to 3 credit hours in the specified field of interest.
