Beginning the Program
In order to finish the program in three years, it is strongly recommended for the students entering the program to begin their work with the summer term Greek course unless they previously have completed the equivalent work in the Greek language. Greek and Hebrew courses are prerequisites for the other classes of NT and OT that the students are preferably expected to complete all these language courses in the first year of the program.
Program Requirements
The following academic requirements apply to M.Div. program:
1. Ten credit hours during a semester, or three credit hours during the winter term, is the minimum program for a full-time student. No student may take more than 20 credit hours during a semester without the permission of the faculty.
2. No student will be granted a degree who lacks the equivalent of the courses in the original languages of Scripture, or whose cumulative academic average at the completion of the program is lower than 2.0. The degree shall be granted only to persons enrolled at Remnant University at the time of the completion of their program of study. A student who has completed requirements by the end of the winter term of the year of graduation may receive the degree in absentia.

If no credits are transferred from another institution, three years of full-time study is the minimum amount of time it will take to complete the degree. Unless a student is granted advanced placement based on the results of the Greek or Hebrew placement exams, the student must begin with the summer term and complete the courses in sequence as noted on
