and a very large and growing number of the outstanding graduates of the

leaders for Christ in the  local and foreign ministries,  in television and
radio ministries and in counseling, education, and children's homes
ministries. (Please see Alumni List for a more current listing.) We are
very proud of each of them for what they have accomplished in their studies
at the Schools of Preaching and the Bible Institutes and we are very thankful
that we have our association with them through the Regents Validation
Degree Programs of the Theological University of America.

Through the REGENTS VALIDATION DEGREE PROGRAM of
the Theological University of America, we are able to award the
BACHELOR'S DEGREE  and, often,  the  MASTER'S DEGREE
to any  graduate of a brotherhood School of Preaching or Bible
Institute.  With the combination of ministerial experience and the
School of Preaching or Bible Institute  and other, often only academic
educational experiences, and the graduate's resume, we often are able
to award the DOCTOR OF MINISTRY degree through the REGENTS
VALIDATION DEGREE PROGRAM.

You qualify now for the Bachelor's degree if you have graduated from
a brotherhood School of Preaching or Bible Institute. If you have
completed a post graduate course at the School of Preaching or Bible
Institute, you qualify for the Master's degree.  You may qualify for both
the Master's degree and Doctor of Ministry degree based on your
graduation from the School of Preaching or Bible Institute, your
ministerial experience, and your resume.

The tuition and diploma fee for each REGENTS degree is $625.00.
You may remit the tuition and fee in full at the time of your enrollment
or you  may remit the tuition in installments at a rate agreed upon by you
and the Theological University of America.

Your degree will be conferred only when the tuition and fee are remitted
in full.

Because we are so familiar with the outstanding education you receive
in the brotherhood Schools of Preaching and Bible Institutes, evaluation
of your transcript and resume requires only 10 days.

You as a student and graduate of a brotherhood
School of Preaching or Bible Institute are not required to send the
Evaluation Fee with your Evaluation Form.

The THEOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA is an
outstanding distant learning university providing superior education
world wide. Our entire faculty holds the earned accredited doctorate
degrees from America's and our brotherhood's finest  universities. We
will be most pleased to have you with us in the Theological University
of America and to share the wonderful opportunity of our Regents
Validation Degree Program. We believe your degrees from the
Theological University of America are fitting companions to your great
education at the Schools of Preaching and Bible Institutes and will
open many opportunities to you in your ministry. We are most pleased
to answer any question.
