Earn Your Degree Based on Ministry Experience and College Credits:

The RBI Life Experience Degree Program offers students of a mature age the opportunity to earn their degree by using their ministry life experience to earn credits toward a degree program. The RBI Life Experience Degree Program is designed to assess the student’s educational and academic standing through prior learning, professional experience, and other factors.

Students age 35 and older are offered the opportunity to take the Portfolio Assessment Evaluation to determine the student’s status and academic standing based on prior learning, practical experience, books read and seminars/symposiums attended. The Portfolio Assessment is $100.00, which is due and payable at the time the student submits his/her portfolio for assessment.

Upon review, the Board of Regents will make its determination whether or not the student qualifies for enrollment in this program. If the Board of Regents votes favorably, the student will need to pay the $100.00 Portfolio assessment fee. The student may receive up to 30 credits that may be applied toward their degree program. All remaining credits for the degree program must be earned by completing the necessary coursework.
