Video: Leadership Excellence School: Undergraduate Degree Programs
Well hello. My name is Abigail Dominiak. I'm the director of Christian leaders, and I also am a graduate of the Bachelor of divinity at Christian leaders college. So I am excited to share with you about the Christian leaders college and what those program degree programs are like. So what is Christian leaders College. Christian leaders College is a branch that offers associate and bachelor degrees. In addition to that, a lot of times, the question that will come up is, what is our college accreditation? Like our Christian leaders, college has applied for and been accepted into applicant status with ABHE, which stands for the Association of biblical higher education. For US Department of Education recognized accreditation, and so we are in the process of obtaining full USDE accreditation. In addition, Christian leaders College has quality religious accreditation from the IABCS, and so that basically both of these accreditation pieces just speaks into that the courses and the degree programs are high quality, and they are at that college level. And we'll talk about some of the other opportunities that come up with being in our college as I continue this presentation, the next most common question, probably is what degrees are offered. As I already said, we offer both associates and bachelor so we have an Associate of divinity and a Bachelor of divinity. The same with chaplaincy and Christian leadership. With the Christian leadership degree, we also offer some extra majors or concentrations that you could pursue maybe you're interested in business or philosophy, you could get a triple major that included philosophy or business along with that Christian leadership degree. So keep that in mind that there's a lot of even more options than just even these three programs as the Christian leadership degree, you can kind of add in, once again a business or another type of concentration, the degree fees is another important question to be answered. So we have an application fee, and we also have the $1500 per degree. Now that price is adjusted, that is the tier four price, or what I would call the kind of US, or nations that are on a similar economic level as the United States. But we adjust that price, and we give grants to students in different nations. So maybe you're watching this, and you're from Nigeria, the price for you would be an equivalent of what $1500 would feel like in the US. And so this price is meant so that no one needs to get student loans, and it does not need to go in debt. You can set up payment plans, and we also have other grants. So maybe you are on disabilities, or you're a veteran or a single parent, so we have a lot of other options to make that price even lower and more accessible to you, or even a full scholarship is a possibility. And so again, we try to just keep this program and this administrative fees as low as possible. And we have these fees to cover the personalized work of the staff at Christian leaders College, transferring to and from our college. You can transfer if you have a previous degree, there is a $250 transfer fee to transfer over the Associate Program and move right into a bachelor but that might be an option for you. If you have a degree from a previous college, also graduates of Christian leaders college can
apply to a master's degree program or transfer credit to an accredited partner institution. So we have a partnership with multiple institutions like Ohio Christian University or Liberty. In fact, I am pursuing a degree with Ohio Christian University. I completed my Bachelor's with Christian leaders college and then transferred into a dual masters at Ohio Christian University, and so it has been a huge blessing to have these partners. So if you feel led to not only get a bachelor or associate degree, but continue into a master's, we have accredited partners that will take our graduates or credits from Christian leaders college. If you feel led to do the college something that's important to understand is that the first step for you after this Getting Started course is to take our college admissions course, and this course answers your degree questions, helps you find the right degree track, and ensures you're a valid candidate to join Christian leaders college. Because of our accreditation journey, there are certain requirements and restrictions that make someone a valid candidate for a degree with Christian leaders college and so that admissions class not only has some assignments like verifying your identity, and you know, writing a written profile and getting recommendations and establishing college readiness, but it. Also will just ensure that you are located and you're in a spot where you are valid to be a candidate of Christian leaders college. Well, I am excited for you again. I think the degree program offers so much knowledge. Again, as a graduate myself, I can speak into how much knowledge and skills and just how it deepened my relationship with Christ and I have seen the same for many graduates of Christian leaders College. God bless you.
