BJU Seminary offers courses in multiple formats at schedules to make your degree more affordable and accessible.
All course offerings below are real-time, synchronous classes with several different scheduling options. You may attend these classes in-person at our campus in Greenville, South Carolina, or through interactive livestream from any place in the world.
Each course option is represented as a specific section in Student Central. For example, SCH 601-1 indicates you wish to take the course in-person, and SCH 601-5 indicates you want to take the course via interactive livestream from your location. Please consult the legend to understand how to register for your chosen format/modality.
