Class Pricing

Certificate * Enhance your understanding of God's global purpose through lectures, activities, and selected readings. Receive individualized feedback upon completing weekly homework, personal response sheets and the semester project, deepening your understanding. If you are not interested in receiving credit, we recommend this as the best option for getting the most out of Perspectives.

Audit * Similar to the idea of 'auditing' a class. You receive the same teaching and lectures as the certificate level, and are encouraged to read one or two key articles a week and complete several personal response sheets during the semester to help you process the material. You are not requred to take part in the additional readings, weekly homework, or project, and will not receive a grade. You will not receive a certificate saying that you completed the Perspectives course.

Details to be announced.

Credit * Earn graduate level credit hours for completing the course. Additional reading and assignments are required. EMS gives 3 credit hours to students who pass the course at this level.

Alumni can attend Perspectives for free. We ask, however, that registering alumni defer to 1st-time students unless they plan to take the class again at a higher level; space is limited and we want everyone to have a chance to take the course. Please contact philip.rhodes@vmmissions.org to ask about availability/space.

If you find 5 others to take the class with you, you may attend the class free. Contact philip.rhodes@vmmissions.org for more info.
