Our students have a variety of academic program and degree options, ranging from certificates to associates and bachelors of Religious Studies. Students should select a program of study and follow the recommended sequence of courses that is noted below. However, if one is uncertain about a major or program of study, courses may be taken at random and later transferred into a specific program of study. Undecided students should begin by working on a for-credit certificate. If a student wants to eventually work on a degree, s/he should ensure that all of the courses taken during the undeclared period are “for-credit” courses, as opposed to non-credit certificate courses.
