Enroll at Simmons College of Kentucky
 
In an effort to meet the educational needs of the total community, Simmons College of Kentucky has developed four distinct educational programs, plus a commitment to a fifth program objective, with a focus on an academic, research-based, faith-based approach to community involvement, interaction, and development.

Non-degree Programs:
• The Certificates in Christian Ministry Studies
• The Diploma in Christian Ministry Studies

Degree Programs:
• The Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies
• The Bachelor of Theology

Non-Degree Programs
The non-degree programs are designed to provide prospective students with essential Christian training at the college level particularly those students who do not qualify for admission to a degree program. The Certificate program is a thirty-one (31) credit hour course of study. The Diploma in Christian Ministry program is a sixty (60) credit hour course of study and provides the student with a more comprehensive Liberal Arts and Christian Studies curriculum. The Diploma program is designed to be completed in two years.

Degree Programs
The degree programs provide both academic and practical experiential training in Biblical , Theological, and Ministerial studies, in addition to a wide range of ministry areas. The Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies is a four (4) year degree program which incorporates both Liberal Arts and Christian Studies into its 120 hour educational program.

The Bachelor of Theology program is designed for students who desire study in the area of Theology and Biblical studies beyond the Bachelor of Arts program. A written thesis is required for the completion of this program.

Certificate Program
Simmons College of Kentucky offers a one-year program of thirty-one (31) credit hours leading towards a certificate in Christian Ministry. The program is designed for persons who desire Christian training in order to more effectively serve in Christian ministry, but who either do not meet the academic requirements for admission to the Bachelor of Arts degree program or desire a shorter program or study.

Students in the Certificate program will attend the same classes and do the same class work as the degree students. Should the student meet the necessary academic requirements and desire to be admitted to the Bachelor of Arts degree program only course work in the Certificate program in which the student earned a letter grade “C” or above will be applied to the degree program.

Simmons Community Solutions: Community involvement and partnership programs
A significant component of our institutional strategic plan is Simmons Community Solutions (SCS), a comprehensive community development program. The target population for SCS is not just our current student body (approximately 125 students at the main campus and satellite locations), but the entire Louisville Metro community in general, and Western Louisville (Simmons' location) in specific.
