HUA

No student is eligible to attend HUA who is currently on academic, chapel or disciplinary probation on the Searcy campus. Any student who has applied and/or been accepted will automatically become ineligible if placed on any type of probation up until time to depart. Such individuals will be placed on a waiting list and may go only if there are openings after probation has been removed. In addition, a student must have an overall 2.0 GPA.

The following courses are required: BOLD 3005 and HUM 2730. Successful completion of a second Bible course during a full semester International Program will permit a student to apply this course to the Bible requirement for a future semester, provided that the second Bible class is taught by a College of Bible and Ministry instructor. The student may apply this benefit in the future semester of their choice.

While it is our intention to offer the courses listed, changes are sometimes necessary.

A minimum of 12 credit hours must be maintained throughout the semester, and are included in the cost of the program. If you enroll in more than 12 credit hours, you will be charged for those hours. Eight semesters of Bible are required by the University for graduation. Students who complete two Bible courses at HUA will have one of their later semesters of the Bible requirement waived.
