Bachelor Degree Program

God's Word Theological Institute awards are open to everyone, there are no entry qualifications, no admission interviews, nor barriers whatsoever. We do however request you to send us a copy of your verifiable resume in order to properly determine whether you should be admitted.

The Institute allows credits for all previous studies, independent or correspondence course studies, seminars, workshops, language skills and any other learning process whether acquired in formal or informal settings.

Perhaps you served in the military where nobody ever told you how many credits you actually accumulated? You can check them out HERE and fully apply them towards your God's Word Theological Institute credentials.

We are careful to whom we make our awards to but we will consider any award be it a Bachelor, Master or Doctorate in Christian Religious Studies, i.e. Theology or Divinity.

We believe that your God's Word Theological Institute credentials will be of benefit to you and that you may already have the experience and knowledge to qualify.

This programme is designed for everyone whatever their sex, age, race, social or ethnic background. We do not ask you to take time off work, study or sit exams nor does our programme have any residency qualification.

U.S. Higher Education Policy

The U.S. Government Department of Veteran Affairs supports the concept of earning credits toward a standard college degree based on the individual’s knowledge and previous life experience, believing that an individual who has acquired collegiate credit through such means has manifested a level of knowledge, maturity, and ability that is at least equal to that of individuals who may otherwise qualify (Title II, Section 203).

The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration encourages job applicants to obtain degrees earned by Life Experience credits.

What we expect from you.

If you are applying for the Bachelor Degree, We require and assess the resume of your educational, professional, military and hobby-related experience.

If you are applying for the Master or Doctorate Degree we not only require and assess the resume of your educational, professional, military and hobby-related experience, but also a 25,000 double spaced Thesis for the Masters Degree and a 50,000 word double spaced Dissertation for the Doctorate, (See below for the accepted topics.) Keep in mind that any academic evaluation is subjective in nature. 

You will be submitting your resume in absolute confidence. We will not contact any employer or educational establishment or tutor. Your resume is an assessment tool, entirely for our own internal purposes in order to realistically determine whether your existing knowledge justifies your admission.

For additional information on our Master or Doctorate programs please visit our

Degree by Dissertation page.
