ÐÇ¿Õ‚÷ý

ÐÇ¿Õ‚÷ý offers over 25 bachelor¡¯s degrees with concentrations in subjects like student ministry, business administration, and Christian counseling. We also offer five-year programs, which will put you on a rigorous, accelerated course to earn both an undergraduate and graduate degree as you prepare to give your life for the cause of Christ, wherever he calls.

For a complete listing of our degree offerings, see our .

 

The average undergraduate degree (BA or BS) at the college will take a full-time student 4 years. This, of course, depends on the specific course requirements and the individual student¡¯s desired course load. Students may take advantage of Hybrid classes, J-term classes, 4 summer sessions, and one week intensives taught over fall and spring break in addition to traditional fall and spring semesters. If a student takes an average load of 15 credit hours a semester, they will need to also take a total of 6 hours over the course of a summer or J-term session during the duration of his or her degree.

 

Southeastern¡¯s mission is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ by equipping students to serve the Church and fulfill the Great Commission. It is our view that everyone in the body of Christ, not just those called into vocational ministry, can benefit from rich theological education as they seek to serve the Lord Jesus by serving their church. ÐÇ¿Õ‚÷ý equips students to serve in two distinct ways: directly and indirectly. Directly equipping students involves those students who have a call to full-time ministry (pastors, missionaries, etc.) Indirectly equipping students involves those students who desire to be lay leaders in their local body who serve as teachers, lawyers, business professionals and much more.

 

Our degrees teach students not only what to think concerning biblical and theological disciplines, but they equip our students to be better critical thinkers, writers and communicators.

To be considered full time a college student, one must take at least 12 credit hours a semester. In order to finish in the 4 years recommended, one must take 15 credit hours a semester on average and also enroll in a total of 6 credit hours during summer or J-term sessions over the duration of the degree.

Incoming students who fit the requirements for the House System will live in the dorms on campus. The purpose of the House System is to glorify the Lord Jesus Christ by equipping students to serve the church and fulfill the Great Commission by cultivating student communities that foster Great Commission living, academic excellence, community identity, and enduring friendships.

Involvement in ÐÇ¿Õ‚÷ý House System shapes virtually every aspect of our student experience. The houses are led by students and driven by our mission to equip students to serve the church and fulfill the Great Commission. Students will build close friendships, grow spiritually, academically and have plenty of fun!

Housing applications are accepted at any time after being admitted, but we recommend students apply early to secure their housing assignment.

Students who do not fit the requirements of our House System may desire to choose other housing. Many students choose the option of living in our campus housing options because of their affordability, flexibility, and proximity. To learn more about these and other options, visit our housing office webpage or call them directly at (919) 761-2400.

Students can pursue multiple minors but cannot pursue multiple bachelor¡¯s degrees simultaneously. Students can, however, pursue an associate¡¯s degree and then apply those credits towards a bachelor¡¯s degree.

Southeastern does not currently require student to provide proof of health coverage, though it is highly encouraged.

 

Southeastern offers an on-campus Health Center directed by a physician for students, faculty and staff as well as their families. Students and their spouses may use the physician¡¯s services without cost during regular office hours.

The actual cost of the college varies based on a number of factors. Here is a link to a helpful cost estimator.

Southeastern is a private institution and receives no funding from the federal or state government. Therefore, there is no distinction between in-state and out-of¨Cstate students and tuition rates.

Complete the Institutional Financial Aid Application at judsoncollege.com/financialaid. Students don¡¯t have to wait to be accepted to ÐÇ¿Õ‚÷ý before they apply for financial aid. ÐÇ¿Õ‚÷ý also maintains an extensive list of external scholarships for your convenience.

Undergraduate students must complete a FAFSA? to be eligible for institutional scholarships. They may also qualify for the Federal Pell Grant and the North Carolina Need-Based Scholarship.

International students and students unable to complete the FAFSA? may receive exceptions.

While students of other denominational backgrounds are strongly encouraged to attend ÐÇ¿Õ‚÷ý, students who are not a member of a Southern Baptist church cannot receive the scholarship. This scholarship is the result of Southern Baptist churches pooling their resources to provide financial help to their members.

In order to receive the Southern Baptist scholarship, a student¡¯s recommending church (the one at which he or she is a member) must be part of the Southern Baptist Convention.

No! Most of our scholarships are available to students participating in our distance-learning program.

Yes, we accept most transfer credits from regionally or nationally accredited schools. We also accept most AP and CLEP tests for credit, depending on the test results. Once accepted, students can apply for an official transcript evaluation to have credits transferred. The number of transferable credits depends on the requirements for your desired program, the letter grade (C- or higher) for the course, and the relevance of the course to your particular degree.

 

This depends on a number of factors. Please contact the Registrar¡¯s Office at (919) 761-2215 to see where you may stand.

Once your transcript has been sent to our admissions office, you can request an unofficial transcript evaluation from your admissions counselor to see how classes will potentially transfer for your desired degree.

Several of our degrees and courses can be completed online. For more questions concerning specific classes that are offered online, please contact us at [email protected].

After the on campus portion, students complete any remaining coursework online.
