UNDERGRADUATE CATALOG 2018 - 2019 Volume XLIII 1 Statement of Administration It is often said, “We are living in the greatest days of opportunity,” when it comes to evangelizing the world with the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. With opportunity comes responsibility. Trinity Baptist College is the place for those who want to seize the great opportunities in the Lord’s work. We are training in every area of Christian work: pastors, staff positions, missionaries, school teachers, and business men/women. Great opportunities! Trinity is balanced with responsibility. We are responsible to train our students with a commitment to the Word of God. We are responsible to impart devotion to the local church. We are responsible to teach students to love Christ. We are responsible to motivate people in soulwinning and world evangelization. In a great day of opportunities, Trinity will prepare you to meet the challenge. Sincerely in Christ, Dr. Tom Messer Chancellor Where to attend Christian College is one of the most important decisions in life. Trinity Baptist College is an institution that stands fi rmly on the Word of God, believes strongly in the local church, and strives earnestly to provide quality education at an affordable cost. Our world is in desperate need of men and women who are committed to Christ and are competent to communicate God’s Word in a relevant manner. Trinity Baptist College is not for everyone, but it might be the right choice for you! In Him, Mr. Mac Heavener, Jr. President 2 Table of Contents Statement of Administration...................................................................... 2 Authorization to Operate........................................................................... 4 Information on Accreditation .....................................................................4 Correspondence Directory........................................................................ 5 Calendar of Events ...................................................................................6 General Information ................................................................................7 Doctrinal Expectations .......................................................................8 Doctrinal Statement ...........................................................................9 Mission Statement ...........................................................................15 Educational Philosophy ....................................................................17 Student Life Information ........................................................................ 19 Student Life ......................................................................................20 Standard of Conduct ........................................................................23 Student Services ..............................................................................24 Privacy Rights of Students ...............................................................25 Financial Information .............................................................................27 Costs and Fees Information .............................................................28 Financial Aid .....................................................................................32 Admissions Information .........................................................................39 Admissions Policies .........................................................................40 Transfer of Credits ........................................................................... 44 Re-enrollment Procedures ...............................................................45 Dual Enrollment ...............................................................................45 Academic Information ............................................................................47 Academic Policies ............................................................................48 Programs of Study .................................................................................65 Division of Biblical Studies ...............................................................66 Pastoral Theology ........................................................................67 Church Ministries ......................................................................... 68 Christian Counseling ....................................................................74 Missions .......................................................................................75 Worship Music.............................................................................. 77 Music ............................................................................................81 Interdisciplinary Studies (B.S.) .....................................................84 3 Interdisciplinary Studies (B.S.) - Prelaw Track .............................86 Bible Intensive ..............................................................................88 Biblical Studies (A.S.) .................................................................. 89 Division of Education ....................................................................... 90 Elementary Education ..................................................................92 Elementary Education with Special Education ............................. 93 Secondary Education ...................................................................95 Early Childhood Education (A.S.) ................................................98 Interdisciplinary Studies Major (A.S.) ...............................................99 Division of Business .......................................................................101 Management ...............................................................................101 Accounting .................................................................................. 103 Sport Management ..................................................................... 104 Course Descriptions ............................................................................107 Personnel ............................................................................................ 148 Campus Map ........................................................................................158 Authorization to Operate Licensed by the Commission for Independent Education, Florida Department of Education.
