EXTENDED STUDY PROGRAM
(All college courses are available for extended or home study)
Purpose of the Extended Study Program:
The Extended Study Program is for any adult person who desires a fuller knowledge of the Word of God, but due to circumstances is not able to attend campus classes. This program is designed so the student can set his or her own study times and learn the Word of God and earn a degree at home. Correspondence will be done via the internet. The entire study course along with tests and work assignments will be e-mailed so the student can download it into their computer and also print off each course for study. Study courses can be mailed via U. S. Postage for students without internet access. Students will be responsible for all mailing expenses.
e-College
Another form of study via the internet will be weekly e-mails of lessons studied in the classroom. This will be called e-College. A student that cannot attend campus can receive the same study notes and tests from each week’s class to study at home. The student will be required to keep up with the class and lessons each week or receive a W (Withdrew). The following is the motto for e-College: “e-College, Where the “e” is for Education and Exhortation”.
All e-College tests must be completed and turned in before the deadline given by the teacher. The student’s grade for any test which is late will be lowered one grade level for each week the test is not returned. After the second week past the deadline and the test is not turned in, the student will receive an F. If a student needs more time to complete a test or work assignment, he or she needs to contact their teacher and the teacher will gladly work with the student. If a student is having difficulty and needs more time, it is the responsibility of the student to communicate with the teacher and let them know their situation. The college will work with the student to help them successfully complete their work and maintain good grades.
Tuition Cost, Fees, and Payments
The cost of tuition for Extended Study and “e-College” is the same as listed in the information for “Tuition”. All costs and fees apply to all Extended Study and e-College students. Payments are to be paid to the college, with all checks and Money Orders made out to Biblical Study Theological Seminary. See link for “Tuition”.
Time Allotted to Complete each Extended Study Course
The student is allowed four months to complete each course. The four month time period begins on the date you receive the course. If a student needs more time to complete a course he must contact his professor and more time can be allowed if necessary. Before credit hours can be received, tuition must be paid in full for each course completed. If a student needs more time to pay tuition he must work this out with the college.
Grades and Credits
Each student will be graded by his or her test results, work assignment results, book reports, and how well he keeps his notebook. Each course will contain several tests and work assignments that must be completed and turned in to the college before credits can be received for that course. Credits can only be received when all tests, work assignments, and book reports are turned in, and the student’s notebook has been graded. Student must receive a passing grade to receive credit.
Notebooks
Each student is required to print out all courses received from the college and keep in a three ring binder notebook and must keep the notebook neat and up-to-date. Notebooks apply to both Extended Study and e-College studies. Throughout each course there will be questions to answer and words to look up in a dictionary. These notes must be recorded in your notebook. The college holds the right to grade a student’s notebook at any given time. A part of each student’s final grade will be based upon his or her notebook.
Book Reports and Essays
Book reports must be turned in for all books read and must be typed in 12 point font size. There must be a space between each line for easy reading. 12 point font size and spacing also applies to all essays.
Reading Bible References (Scriptures)
Throughout each Extended Study and e-College courses there is Bible verses listed. The student is required to look up and read all Bible references, even if you think you know the verses by heart. Do not skip one verse. This is a Bible study and all emphasis must be put upon the Word of God. This can only be done on an honor basis, so we trust each student will properly study their lessons. Do not rush through a course. Take time to learn and absorb the Word as you study.
