To Earn the Master of Arts
This program has been designed to provide you with a comprehensive Biblical education in an accelerated online four-module educational format. The 32 credit hour requirement for the Master of Arts program is fulfilled by completing four projects in the Major Concentration of your choosing.
Atlantic Coast offers a Master of Arts Degree in:
Each M.A. Concentration contains courses which require Projects related to two textbook and audio lectures which will be located in the
Online Resource Room
. The audio lectures are also available for personal ministry use. In addition to the courses in the Concentration, there is a Master of Arts Summative Examination. This is a written summation of the learning experience in the M.A. concentration, and is to include how this M.A. experience will be applied by the graduate in life and ministry.
Sample M.A. Program Syllabus:
Project One

Summative Examination
The Summative Exam is an “open book” summation of your learning experience in the M.A. degree program. Using your textbook outlines, essays, and notes from the audio lectures, write a summation of your educational experience in no less than 1,500 words.
These program objectives are in compliance with the federal government administration’s request to educational institutions to develop Fast Track degree programs which will place qualified persons into the workplace more rapidly than outdated traditional programs. We believe this also applies to ministry.
