How long does it take to complete the degree?

We have two programs:

Program I [60 semester hours]- for college or university graduates with no previous studies in Bible or theology. Program I students can complete the M.A. (Muslim Studies) program in 40 months. Students would need to complete 15 one-week intensives to meet residence requirements. We offer six intensives a year two in January and four in July.

Program II [30 semester hours]- "fast-track" for those who have at least 30 semester hours of college credit in Bible, theology or church history. Program II students can complete the M.A. (Muslim Studies) in as little as one year. Students would need to complete 5 one-week intensives to meet residence requirements. We offer six intensives a year two in January and four in July.
