Degree Programs

There are three specific program options and several opportunities for electives within the Degree Completion Program.

B.S. Degree in Bible

This option is our primary program and is designed for those who have at least 45 credits from an accredited college or university and wish to earn a bachelor’s degree in Bible. For those entering our program without any prior Bible or theology credits, they will earn all the Bible, theology, and ministry courses needed to graduate with a degree in Bible. For those who transfer in some Bible or theology credits, there are elective credits in arts and sciences that will allow the student to avoid unnecessary duplication of Bible credits and to pick up some arts and science courses needed for graduation. Courses in counseling are also available. Students can earn up to 60 credits in this program option leading to a Bachelor of Science degree in Bible.

Second Degree

This option is for those already holding a bachelor’s degree in another field. The completion of 36 credits in Bible and theology will earn the student another bachelor’s degree, a Bachelor of Science degree in Bible.

Concentrated Bible Certificate

For those who would like to earn LBC’s one-year Concentrated Bible Certificate (CBC) but cannot attend classes in the daytime. This option is for those who wish to further their Bible knowledge on a college level but do not necessarily need a degree. It is ideal for those looking forward to serving on the mission field who need Bible training. This one-year certificate is a recognized academic achievement and the 30 credits earned in this certificate program are transferable college credits. No prior college credit is required for admission into this option.

New on-campus groups start twice a year, usually every February and August. Our online cohorts start in January and July. Contact the Degree Completion Office for details.
