UPDATE: JAN 1st 2020: Associate’s Degree
This year we decided to integrate an Associate’s Degree into our degree programs. This degree actually begins at the AISOM program enrollment level.
After enrolling pay the $340.00 new student discount saving $100.00 and receive the bonuses. This will qualify you to enter the Fast-Track program saving you on tuitions for your Associate’s and Bachelor’s degree. Below are the criteria for earning your Associate’s degree instead of the printed diploma.
1.) Paying the $340.00 at the beginning of your studies so you can access and use our online grading system for all of your final exams.
2.) Completing your 22 courses using the online grading system.
3.) Starting your Bachelor’s degree at AMES Christian University.
Once you have finished the AISOM program and have transferred over to ACU either after completing 4 courses or at the end at least 1 year from your enrollment date. You will become eligible Associate’s degree instead of a printed diploma. If you go through the AISOM paid program making payments and having not used our grading system you can still go on to ACU however you will only earn a diploma. (You must pay the $340.00 to get access to the grading system and you must use this system and transfer to ACU to receive the Associate’s degree.)
We have never in 17 years offered an Associate’s degree because we did not have a grading system and felt that we could not offer a degree for a program that is self-graded. We are charged per student for the grading system, therefore, we require the full payment and we give you a $100.00 discount upfront and a total of $919.00 if you use the Fast-Track bonus at ACU.
