ASSOCIATE OF BIBLICAL STUDIES DEGREE PROGRAM

Requires 60 Credit Hours

Materials for each course in this program consist of a textbook, or a workbook—the one exception being
an audio course for The Gifts and The Calling of God which is a General Studies course. For courses
using textbooks, the student is required to read the textbook and then answer the questions prepared by
RMCI for the textbook. This process may require reading the textbook several times. Students are then
required to prepare an outline of the contents of each audio lesson, or each chapter in the textbook.
The outline is to be a minimum of five points per chapter or audio lesson. Students are also required to
type a five paragraph Essay describing three things that he or she learned from the course. In addition,
the student is required to read an ADDITIONAL book that is related to the subject being taught and
to prepare a three (3) page book report, of the ADDITIONAL book. For courses using Bible
Workbooks, the student is required to complete the workbook and write a summary of the theme of
the book(s) of the Bible that is/are used in the workbook. All outlines, essays, and summaries are to be
prepared as per the required format provided in the appendix of this catalog. For General Studies
courses, the student is required to answer the questions on the answer sheet.

For each textbook course in the Associate Program, the course test will comprise 40% of the course
grade, the outlines will comprise 10% of the course grade, the essays will comprise 20% of the course
grade, and the book report will comprise 30% of the course grade. For Bible courses using
workbooks, the test will comprise 70% of the course grade and the summary will comprise 30% of the
course grade as there is no outline, essay, nor book report. For General Studies courses, the test will
comprise 100% of the grade.

NOTE: A student cannot begin studies in a new course unless all requirements for the
previous course have been completed and submitted.
