A four-year BA concentration that trains students to read Scripture carefully, learn biblical languages, and teach interpretation in ministry contexts. Suited to students pursuing pastoral, educational, or mission-focused roles or those preparing for graduate theological study.

What you'll study

The concentration requires seven focused courses in biblical studies: two courses in biblical Greek, two courses in biblical Hebrew, and three additional courses that let you study either Old Testament or New Testament topics. The curriculum emphasizes linking theological study with practical ministry application so graduates can interpret Scripture and teach others to do the same.

Entry requirements

No prior degree is required to enroll. Applicants must submit official high school or GED transcripts; transfer applicants must provide official transcripts from previous institutions. Anderson University operates a rolling admission process but recommends applying by December 1 for strongest scholarship consideration and no later than July 1 to begin in the fall semester.

Career prospects

Graduates commonly move into ministry roles such as pastor, missions pastor, Christian educator, or youth pastor. The concentration also prepares students for further theological training; common postgraduate pathways include a Master of Divinity, Master of Ministry, or Master of Theology. Note that job placement and internship opportunities are not guaranteed and outcomes vary by location, industry, and individual qualifications.

Scholarships & funding angle

Anderson University provides tuition, scholarships, and financial aid resources for incoming students; applicants seeking institutional scholarship consideration are advised to meet the December 1 date. Specific scholarship amounts or guarantees are not stated on the programme page, and financial outcomes depend on eligibility and application timing.
