Master of Arts Biblical Counseling
for
Bible College Graduates
Those who are Bible college graduates may receive advanced standing credits (ASC). If you receive ASC, you are not required to retake the course(s) and are not required to take additional course(s) to make up for the credits. The purpose for ASC is to reduce redundancy in your program. Thus, you may be able to complete the MABC more quickly. Your faculty advisor will work with you to determine the amount of ASC you will receive.
