Audit Policy

Auditing classes allows individuals to attend class lectures to pursue biblical and theological knowledge without being subjected to the course requirements to earn a letter grade.

Audited courses may not be taken for credit later.

Auditing Fee

The Audit Fee is the cost for 1 credit hour at the current SBC or non-SBC tuition rate.  There is no enrollment fee if the audited course is the only course for the semester.
