Master of Ministry Program

Students may enroll for classes every September (Fall) and January (Winter). To be considered for admission, all students will be required to hold a Bachelor of Arts/Science degree or its equivalent. Prospective students holding a Bachelor degree must submit an official transcript from an accredited college or university with their application to be considered for admission.

In certain cases admittance to the MMin can be granted on an equivalency basis. Each student will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. If the applicant has enough course work and life experience to satisfy the registrar s/he will be invited to apply for the MMin. If the applicant lacks sufficient classes and/or life experience, s/he can make up the difference by taking college courses in another institution or by taking courses from our Bachelor of Christian Studies program.

In addition, students must:

   • Be an active member (involved in leadership or service) at their local church
   • Have proven Christian character at home, church and work
   • A recommendation from the over-seeing pastor
   • A passion for Christ, His church and His cause and a willingness to be used for His glory

Bachelor of Christian Studies Program

Students may enroll for classes at any point during the year and join an existing cohort. If the student comes into the cohort at any point other than at the beginning of a year-long diploma (such as Biblical Theology) he/she will have to make up what was missed on the back end of their two year program.

Normally a cohort (a group of at least five students) would begin together and go through the entire program as a cohort to enhance community learning. The point of departure for this cohort could be at any time during the year. Their fifty-two week diploma would begin at that point.

Students interested in taking VBI courses through Trinity Learning Community must submit an online application available on the Trinity Learning Community web site. The potential student will designate which site they are interested in on the application. Trinity Learning Community admissions staff will assess his/her application and weigh acceptance into the program.
