DIPLOMA PROGRAM
Diploma in Christian Studies
(Dip.C.S.)
A 30
unit core is required.
The
Diploma in Christian Studies is the ideal
place for either the adult learner who has no college
background, or the individual who simply wants to
broaden his or her ministry education. Graduates of the
Diploma in Christian Studies program are
ideally situated to continue study at the Associate
level. This is a complete Diploma program with a

ASSOCIATE DEGREE
Associate in Ministry
(A.Min.)
A 30
unit minimum core is required
to complete this 60 unit degree.
The
A.Min.
program has been specifically
designed for the older student who has little if any
college experience. The A.Min. is primarily a degree completion program
with a core curriculum of 30 units. You may
receive up to 30 more units of credit for work that
you have already completed, which makes it possible to
earn this 60 unit degree by taking the 30 unit core
only. Your previously earned credits may come
from a combination of college-level, technical school,
military training, or
Advanced Standing.
Of course, you may also make up some (or all) of the
30 non-core credits by taking one or more elective
courses.
An experienced Admissions
Advisor will help you put
together a combination of your previous education,
relevant adult learning experiences, or necessary
elective courses that will qualify you to earn your
Associate in Ministry degree.
GOOD
NEWS! We do not charge
full tuition for the recognition of
life-experience credits. Since some schools do
charge full tuition for the granting of
life-experience credit, (up to 50% of the cost of
tuition in some cases), the MISD policy may result in
a substantial savings for older and more experienced
students.
