Academic Credit
- ❮
If you plan to register for seminary credit, you will be required to complete the for-credit registration through Young Life and the seminary partner of your choosing. You are responsible for following up on any additional forms required by your seminary partner (i.e., online course registrations, transcripts). Each seminary school will issue you a school domain email address. Be sure to check that email often to be best prepared for processes and deadlines associated with your coursework.
Important Note: The cutoff date for registering as a "for-credit" student for this course is December 15, 2025. If, for any reason, you wish to unenroll for academic credit, you will need to contact us prior to January 6, 2025. After this date, your transcripting fee is nonrefundable, and you may be expected to complete any for-credit work (as the Learning and Leadership department may be expected to submit your final grade to your seminary partner, even if your final grade is a failing grade).
For more information, visit our Academic Credit page on Staff Resources or contact us!
