Program overview
A four year arts degree in the biblical texts, covering Old and New Testament literature, biblical languages, hermeneutics and interpretation, historical and cultural context, and theological method, taught within a liberal arts structure.
Crandall is a Christian liberal arts university operated by the Canadian Baptists of Atlantic Canada, and biblical studies is its founding discipline, tracing back to the Bible school the institution began as in 1949. Programmes are open to students of all faiths, and the degree is academic rather than devotional in structure.
Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies is a degree, and bachelor and master degrees are exempt from the field of study requirement, so no CIP code check applies to Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies. Crandall is a private institution, so the designated learning institution list should be checked to confirm the school offers qualifying programmes before applying for Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies. Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies does not meet the sixteen month length that spousal open work permit eligibility requires, so a partner cannot obtain an open work permit on the basis of this programme. Every work permit decision rests with Canadian immigration authorities, and Apply Study Visa confirms the position for Bachelor of Arts in Biblical Studies in writing before you pay a deposit.
