Associate of Bible Degrees

 

Trinity awards the Associate of Biblical Studies degree.  This program requires the successful completion of at least 60 credit hours for a degree to be awarded.  The 60 credit hours should have 27 hours in the area of Bible/Theology, 15 hours in General Studies, and 18 hours in ministry.  This credit hour distribution will change slightly depending on your major area of study.

Trinity accepts credits from other recognized institutions and evaluates ministry for possible life experience credit, but a minimum of 30 hours must be completed through Trinity.
