MACM Distance and Part-time Course Sequence
We have created a three-year pathway to degree completion for our distance and part-time students. In the Fall and Spring semesters you will be in online classes that are 16 weeks long. The Summer (June) and January week-long intensives on campus are a way for you to fulfill your residency requirements as a distance learner, as well as get to know our seminary community and fellowship in-person with those you learn with weekly online.
