Course Duration

The duration of regularly scheduled courses are fourteen (14) weeks in the Fall and Spring, six (6) weeks during the summer.

Class Times

Course Cancellation

A course may be canceled if fewer than four (4) students enroll. Students may then choose an alternate class.

Chapel

Chapel is scheduled in order to provide a time of worship and praise. Each student and faculty member is required to participate in Chapel unless circumstances prevent it. Chapel is followed by a fellowship and refreshment time.

Class Auditing

An auditor is one who takes a course purely for personal enrichment and is not required to take the exams or do the homework. Auditors receive the same quality instruction offered to the credit student. The grade report will show that the course was audited. A certificate is awarded. Once enrolled as an auditor, the enrollment may not change to a credit status.

Extension

All course work must be completed within three weeks after the course ends.
