Abiding Life Christian Theological Seminary 10 Pidgeon Hill Drive #150, Sterling, VA 20165 Accreditation? ACTS has chosen not to seek governmental school accreditation because we believe we should not allow secular institutions to dictate the qualifications for instructors or the programs for a Spirit-filled ministerial degree. The vast majority of Bible Colleges and Seminaries choose not to be governed by the United States Department of Eduction. We are however considering an independant non-governmantal accrediting agency.
Tuition fee per course: $100 (x9 courses = $900 per year) Book Fees: (Usually $10-$20 per course) Classes Currently, all courses are only available online. They are posted on our ACTS YouTube Channel. However, in order to get credit for the courses you must pay the tuition fee and take the test in person. After completing a course, contact pastor@abidinglife.net to request the test for that course. How to Earn Diplomas/Degrees 30 credits earn an ACTS certificate for the student. With proof of a high school transcript, you will receive a non-accredited associate's degree upon achieving 60 credits (without a high school transcript, you will receive a diploma). Each course is worth 3 credits and so is the Ministry Practicum. A full-time student should be able to accomplish 9 courses plus a Ministry Practicum each year. But our courses are designed so students can work at their own pace. |
