Individuals may take classes for academic credit as non-degree students without making application to an academic program. However, those intent on seeking a degree must submit an application by the time they enroll in their fourth class.

LCLI Classes

No separate application forms are necessary for enrolling in Local Church Learning Initiative [LCLI] classes. Visit the LCLI section on this website for more information about registering for LCLI classes.
