To graduate with this Diploma, you will complete two years of study with two main areas of focus. You will dive into your Christian faith, investigating the Scriptures, Christian theology, history, and mission. You will also enroll in a series of classes designed to give you a broad introduction to the humanities and social sciences.
At 68 credits, the Diploma in General Studies can be completed in two years if you are willing to work hard and plan your courses carefully. If you prefer to have a significant part-time job or have other commitments, you are also welcome to finish your diploma at a slower pace.
