Classes begin week of August 27, 2012, and conclude the week of December 20. Fall Break (no classes) is October8-12.
The courses we offer in partnership with the John Leland Center, one of our Virginia Baptist education partners, allow persons to pursue 48 hours of undergraduate credit or 20 hours of Masters academic credit. Then, for students who wish to pursue a full Bachelors or Masters degree, agreements with other colleges and seminaries are in place to transfer Leland credits. All the while, students have the option of taking many of their classes closer to home. Students can also take individual classes and even audit a class.
